"The Heavenly Father Hand"

       "I press on, that i may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus
        Has also,aid hold of me."                            Philippians 3:12


        When we cross a busy street with small children in tow, we put out hand and say, "hold on tight." and our little ones grasp our hand as tightly as they can. But we would never depend on their grasp. It is our grip on their hand that holds then and keeps then secure. So Paul insist. "Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me" (Phil.3:12). Or more exactly, "Christ has a grip on me!"
        One thing is certain it is not our grip on God that keeps us safe, but the power of Jesus' grasp. No one can take us out of his grasp not the devil not even ourselves. Once we're in his hands. He will not let go. 
        We have this assurance: "i give the  eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given then to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father's hand" (John 10:28-29).
        Doubly safe: our Father on one side and our Lord and savior on the other clasping us in a viselike grip. These are the hands that shaped the mountains and oceans and flung the star into space. Nothing in this life or the enemy shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Roman 8:39 ). No one this 2016 Happy New to All
