And when you feel as if you can’t hold on any longer. God is not a man that he should lie ( Numbers 23:19). When we feel afraid, we can let God’s Spirit remind us of what God says in his Word. God promises us that he will rescue us in the day of trouble ( Psalm 50:15). And when we feel shaky, we can call on God who is always available ( Job 27:10). We can count on this truth no matter how dire our circumstances. That means God doesn’t change ( Malachi 3:6). Every time I have needed God, he has been there. God continually gave me strength when I had none. I felt powerless but knew that wasn’t true about God. When we discovered my sister was dead, the same God who sustained me kept sustaining me. And all the while, God held onto me when I had no strength. I read the verses over and over till I had them in my mind and tucked away in my heart. I knew God’s Word was true and that God is sovereign. I didn’t have the strength to hold onto anything, and God knew that. Maybe it was hearing my sister disappeared. There have been times in my life the circumstances consumed me. “If I were to put a fork into a power outlet,” she said, “I would have made the contact, but it would be the power source that kept me there.” When we accepted Jesus, we were in Christ, kept by God. My Bible teacher illustrated this vividly. When we made the decision to accept Jesus, we were kept by God’s power. Yet, we are told that just as we received Jesus, we are to walk in him ( Colossians 2:6). Sometimes we forget this truth and we think we need to keep doing things to be one of God’s children. The moment we accept Jesus as our Savior we are born into God’s family. I was a double-minded person ( James 1:8). Feelings change and if we trusted how we felt, well, we’d be all over the place. And when things get difficult, we are to meditate on what we know to be true, no matter how things feel. I believe we need to hold onto the truth of God’s Word. So often in life when things get tough, we hear the words, “Just hang in there.” Words meant to reassure you, but they fall short. Today's Bible Verse: I am the vine, you are the branches the one who remains in Me, and I in him bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing.
