TODAY’S WORD…

.

The Lord carried you, as a man carries his child,

all along the road you travelled.

.

– Deuteronomy 1:31

.

.

REFLECTION…

.

God is the father of each and every one of us.

He has a plan for us all

and wants no harm to come to us as we go through life’s ups and downs.

.

However, it is really up to us

– we either let Him carry us, or we wander off on our own.

.

When we realise that His everlasting arms are underneath,

then we need not fear.

His gentle and untiring arms bear us up…and on…through life.

.

.

.

PRAYER…

.

Father God,

Whatever this day has in store for me,

I know that You will carry me through.

I want You to carry me, Lord.

Lord, You are my refuge

and, holding me up are Your everlasting and caring arms

– so strong, yet so tender!

I let myself go, dear Lord, and place my trust in You.

Lift me up and carry me, Father!
