HOLDING OUR HANDS!

 

HOLDING OUR HANDS!

 

WE are on a

LIFE LONG WALK=with Jesus

And he=HOLDS OUR HANDS

Every step=of the WAY

 

“He approached=GRASPED HER HAND=

An helped her up”                                                                                                             Mark 1:31

 

Jesus has HELPED ME UP=

Helped me along

EVERY STEP=of my journey

 

He gave me A LIFE

AT CONCEPTION=

He SAVED my life=at age22

And gave me=A PURPOSE

For my life

 

He has=HELD MY HAND

All along the way

HOLDING OUR HANDS!

 

“My times=

ARE IN YOUR HANDS

Deliver me=FROM THE HANDS

 

Of my enemies

From those who pursue me”                                                                                       Psalm 31:15

 

“She opens=

Her arms to the poor

And extends=HER HANDS

To the needy”                                                                                                                      Proverbs 31:20

 

Jesus EXTENDS HIS HANDS

To ALL OF US

And helps us=ALONG the road

Of life

 

Today we read about

Peter’s mother-in-law

And HOW SHE=gets to

PHYSICALLY hold the hand=Of Jesus

 

We should envy her

But he LOVES US

Just the same=and

HOLDS OUR HANDS TOO

 

There is STRENGTH

In Jesus=He HELPS HER UP

Jesus takes the INITIATIVE

With her=as he takes

 

THE INITIATIVE in our lives too

He helps us along too

HOLDING OUR HANDS!

 

“Jesus called out=

With a loud voice’=

 

‘Father into YOUR HANDS

I commend my spirit’

When he had said this=He breathed his last”                                                              Luke 23:46

 

“Do not be hasty=

In the laying on=OF HANDS

 

And do not share

In the sins=of others

Keep yourself pure”                                                                                                  1 Timothy 5:22

 

Jesus seeks a RELATIONSHIP

With us too=

HE SEEKS OUR HANDS

In our walk=through life

HOLDING OUR HANDS!

 

Sometimes=we EXPERIENCE

Jesus’ strength=in our walk

THROUGH LIFE

 

And at other times=HE CONSOLES US

Easing our pain

But at ALL TIMES=he is with us

HOLDING OUR HANDS!

 

Jesus allows us

TO PARTICIPATE=in our own salvation

And in=the salvation of THE WORLD

All the while=HOLDING OUR HANDS!

In Jesus’ name=and in the name=OF our FOREVER LIVING=FOREVER LOVING=Holy Father God
