Held Fast
If I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast. Psalm 139:9-10, NIV
Ada R. Habershon was born in England in 1861, and her family attended the Metropolitan Tabernacle, whose pastor, Charles Spurgeon, was a family friend. At the invitation of D. L. Moody, she taught the Bible throughout America. In addition, she wrote hymns. One of them has been revived by modern hymnists: “When I fear my faith will fail, Christ will hold me fast; when the tempter would prevail, He can hold me fast!... Those He saves are His delight, He will hold me fast.”

Psalm 139:7-12
A lot of times we don’t like asking for help; we try to do things on our own. But we are powerless when we are without the Lord. Leaning on God during difficult times highlights our faith in Him and His love for us. We need Him to hold us fast and to give us the wisdom to respond wisely to every situation.
Today offer this prayer—Dear Lord, whatever comes today and whatever goes, hold me fast and remind me I am precious in Your sight.
For my Savior loves me so, He will hold me fast.
