Firmly Gripped!

"Hold tight to my hand and don't let go!"

I wonder how many times I spoke

those words to my little one's

so long ago?

My red headed cutie
and blue-eyed fella
my precious blessings,
oh, I  love them so!

With every breath and beat of this mothers heart

moved deeply with

passion

and

love;

 protecting, defending and tightly gripping the little hands of my blessings from above.

Whether crossing the street or entering territory unknown,

I pulled them so close to my heart and grip.

That's what a loving parents heart does, you know...
drawing precious children close, nary a stumble or slip.


Our Parent does the same, dear one
as He lovingly whispers your name.
 "Stay close, hold tight and worry not, with you I will always remain.
For I AM your Mighty Fortress Protector 
as the storms of heartache and uncertainty blow.
Securely tucked beneath My wings, I'll hold you close and never let you go.
For before you were formed I've loved you 
and held you deep within my heart.
So look at my face and securely rest knowing that from you 
I'll never depart".


"Do not fear my precious one,
trust Me and do not fret.
 Tho' your path is not clearly seen
I'll order your every step. 
You are the apple of my eye
my precious one before foundations named.
Remain in Me secure and firmly gripped, 
 for your victory I've already claimed". 




"Don't panic.  I am with you.  There's no need to fear for I'm your God.  I'll give you strength.  I'll help you.  
I'll hold you steady, keep a firm grip on you"
Isaiah 41:10 Msg.

May you sense the comfort of His Hand firmly gripping you this day and always!

Sweet Blessings!
