Firm Grip


Isaiah 41:10
So do not fear, for I am with you;
do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you;
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Check out the Message version today:
Don’t panic. I’m with you.
There’s no need to fear for I’m your God.
I’ll give you strength. I’ll help you.
I’ll hold you steady, keep a firm grip on you.

My heart just wants to shout, “Hallelujah!” Seriously, how can you not? “I’ll hold you steady, keep a firm grip on you.” When your world is crashing around you, the One who created the world has a firm grip on you. He is not going to let you go. You are steady.

I don’t know if you have ever experienced vertigo. It is not fun. Everything is spinning and shifting all around you, like some overcharged carnival ride. Even though you are standing on solid ground. I usually drop to the ground, close my eyes, and grip something that I know is not moving no matter how I feel. This is exactly what it is like when you have spiritual and emotional vertigo. Your life is twisting and turning. You can’t control the spinning. However, you don’t have to crash and burn. You can drop to your knees, close your eyes, and grab the one thing you know is not moving, God. Best part, He already has a firm grip on you!

Lord, thank You for never letting go! ~amen
