June 24th Devotional

Dear Friends,
Dependence and trust in God are common themes in the Bible.  It seems God is always giving us opportunities to grow in our faith through trusting and depending upon Him in all things.  I remember when my kids where little, the first thing I would say when we’d get out of the car in a parking lot or other public place is “hold my hand”.  This wasn’t a control issue, but a desire for me to protect my children from getting injured in some way.  And so it is with our heavenly Father.  Be blessed as you hold tight to His hand today and every day.  Love, Scott

Hold My Hand-And Trust.  So long as you are conscious of My Presence with you, all is well.  It is virtually impossible to stumble while walking in the Light with Me.  I designed you to enjoy Me above all else.  You find the deepest fulfillment of your heart in Me alone.

Fearful, anxious thoughts melt away in the Light of My Presence.  When you turn away from Me, you are vulnerable to the darkness that is always at work in the world.  Don’t be surprised by how easily you sin when you forget to cling to My hand.  In the world, dependency is seen as immaturity.  But in My kingdom, dependence on Me is a prime measure of maturity.

Isaiah 41:10 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.

Psalm 62:5-6
5 Find rest, O my soul, in God alone; my hope comes from him. 6 He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will not be shaken.
