In His Grip

"Fear not, for I am with you, be not dismayed, for I am your God.  I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand."  Isaiah 41:10.
What are you facing in your day today?  Do you have concerns that stress you when you think about them?  There is a promise here, and it's a big one:  God has us in His grip.  We are being upheld with God's righteous right hand.  His command to us is to stay out of fear - not because we don't have anything to be stressed and worried about.  Rather, because God is God.  He's the boss.  He gives us His strength, and He promises us His help.  We need to get a grip because He, the Creator of the Universe, has a grip on us. How awesome is that, Church Chicks?
 
Lord, help us to not get into fear or stress over our problems, but to remember that You are in control as we yield our lives to You.  Your strength and help can be relied on.  We rest in the grasp of Your right hand and we trust You with our life situations.  Take them, Lord, and give us Your peace in their place.  In Jesus' name, Amen. 
Look for someone to encourage today, Church Chicks. Then tell your story to encourage other Church Chicks on our Facebook page :)

  1. My blog for the day ties in with what your talking about. "Confessions of a Spiritual Drama Queen" We've all had our moments when "Being still" and trusting God was harder than we cared to admit. Thanks for the reminder! He is faithful! http://www.annamaquino.blogspot.com/2012/03/confessions-of-spiritual-drama-queen.html
