A Helping Hand
“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.”- Isaiah 41:10
As our family gets ready to move this summer to a new home in the area, we have heard from so many people offering prayers, congratulations, and support. Over the last couple of weeks, we have had several offer their services in helping with the move, cleaning our current house, providing recommendations for contractors, and sharing creative ideas for the new home.
All these helping hands and big hearts have delivered blessing upon blessing during such a major life-event. Having people to help, dream, and celebrate this new chapter has further increased our joy and strength levels. With all the love coming our way, I continually being reminded of the LORD’S HAND. There is something quite mysterious and marvelous about this type of imagery displaying His love, provision, care, and victory at work among us. While there are arguments as to whether God even has a body at all (He is ever-present, we do know Jesus the Son had a flesh body and now a glorified one), one thing is for certain: God communicates in such a manner so that we would better understand and relate to His present love and constant care.
As you move through this present season, this chapter known as “2021”, and on this faith path let’s rest assured that God’s hand is leading the way, supplying in every way, and protecting us from all threats, dangers, and enemies. Isaiah 59:1 reminds us, “Surely the arm of the Lord is not too short to save, nor His ear to dull to hear.” May your joy and strength increase today as God’s hand…
