"Even there shall Thy hand lead me, and Thy right hand shall hold me." Psalm 139:10
Are you secure in your relationship with Jesus? Most people I have talked to are not happy or satisfied with their spiritual relationship with the God of this universe. I had an elderly man tell me once when I asked him about his salvation and security with Jesus, he said: "I hope I am". It's a shame to live a life not really knowing whether or not you will go to heaven when you die. I've heard people say, "Pray for us that we'll hold out faithful to the end." I think I know what they mean, but I always smile. I picture Noah's ark, and I can see Noah and his wife and family. Rather than being on the inside, they're holding on to some small pegs on the outside of the ark. And Noah says to Mrs. Noah, "Honey, pray for me that I'll hold out faithful to the end." But God said to Noah, "Come into the ark," and the same God that shut the water out, shut Noah in. Now Noah may have fallen down inside that ark, but he never fell out of it. It's not that we hold on to Him, but that He holds on to us. Now that's a security life. Know HE is holding on to me. Why don't you spend some time today simply praising God for His faithfulness, His steadfastness, and His unconditional love for you.
