This morning, I was reminded of one of my favorite passages in scripture: Isaiah 41:10
"So do 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."
This verse always makes me stop and think. It's so cool to think about God holding me and carrying me when I need him to. He isn't apathetic or lazy. He is so proactive about keeping me safe and secure and He will not let me drown even if I think I am going to.
I have nothing to be anxious or worried about because my King and Savior is carrying me. I am in His strong and capable hands and that's the best place I could possibly be. And yet so often I find myself feeling scared. I often need to read Isaiah 41:10 multiple times a week just to remind myself that God is holding me up and I can relax.
God fights my battles. God holds me up. God carries me through.
God fights my battles. God holds me up. God carries me through.
Sometimes, I just need to stop, take a few deep breaths and listen for that unmistakable voice of God whispering in my ear, "I got you, Chloe. I'm right here."
I'm in his arms and I am safe. That's all the assurance I need. May you feel the amazing arms of our Savior wrap around you today and every day. Enjoy the ride. God's got you.
Peace and Joy,
Chloe
