If the Lord delights in a man's way, he makes his steps firm; though he stumble, he will not fall, for the Lord upholds him with his hand. Psalm 37:28-24
I think I'm an expert at falling down. If it were an olympic sport, I would have won the gold medal by now. Throughout my life I have discovered so many new and creative ways to start something with passion and fail miserably. It is almost an art form.
But through it all, the Lord has chosen to reach out, to grab hold of me, and to set my feet firmly on solid ground. By His amazing grace, He has given me the chance to start again.
Lord, this time is going to be different. Hold me in Your grip like never before. I want to literally be attached to You, so I will no longer lose my footing. Forgive me, Father, for my failures. Quiet the mouth of the enemy. I am not the wicked man he wants me to believe. I am Yours.
