Holding On

by adustyframe ~ May 19th, 2010

This afternoon, I worked on getting paperwork ready for my appointment with the attorney. I don’t like digging through all that and remembering everything we’ve been through.

Sometimes it makes me angry. Other times it makes me sad. It almost always makes me tired.

As I organized and wrote notes, I thought, “Ok God. I’m going to keep holding on.”

Then  a thought came to me.

I don’t need to hold on–he is holding me!

I know it’s easier said than done, but I just need to rest in him and allow him to hold me. What a blessed thought.

Psalm 37:17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but the LORD upholdeth the righteous.

Psalm 37:23, 24 The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand.
