We sing an old familiar hymn, Hold on to God’s Unchanging Hand. But I am forever grateful that His holding ability does not depend on mine. While fear, doubts, rebellion, or stumbling in life may loosen my grip on His, His hold on my hand is always firm; it stays the same. He may hold me with one hand and “whoop” me with the other when I need discipline, but praise His name—He has me.
The Triune God’s family members can rest in the security
that He (the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) holds and assists His children: “For
I the Lord thy God will hold thy
right hand saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee” (Isaiah 41:13). He
leads us, picks us up when we fall, calms our fears, erases doubts, encourages
us along the way, and protects us. Hold on to God’s unchanging hand. But if you
lose your grip, fear not; He has you.
