The eternal God is your refuge,
and underneath are
the everlasting arms.
- Deuteronomy 33:27
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.
For I am the LORD, your God,
who takes hold of your right hand
and says to you, Do not fear;
I will help you.
- Isaiah 41:10,13
When Jesus takes your hand,
He holds you tight.
When Jesus holds you tight,
He leads you through your whole life.
When Jesus leads you through
your whole life,
He brings you safely Home.
- Corrie ten Boom
In the valley, no matter how
treacherous and painful and difficult,
nobody can take your hand
out of the hand of the Good Shepherd.
*
Because in the valley,
we are not holding onto Him
for dear life.
It’s the Good Shepherd who has
taken us by the hand!
It doesn’t make any difference
if we let go.
Thank God, He will never let go.
*
The wisest thing you can do
is immerse yourself in the Bible.
Scriptural truths establish you
so that, when you get into the valley,
the Lord Jesus Christ,
who holds your hand
every step of the way,
will keep reminding you of them.
- Charles Stanley
Even though I walk through the valley
of the shadow of death
Your perfect love is casting out fear
And even when I'm caught in the middle
of the storms of this life
I won't turn back
I know You are near
… And I will fear no evil
For my God is with me
And if my God is with me
Whom then shall I fear?
Whom then shall I fear?
… Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and
through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of
… Yes, I can see a light that is coming
for the heart that holds on
And there will be an end
to these troubles
But until that day comes
Still I will praise You,
still I will praise You
- Matt Redman
