HELD FIRM!

In a game of tag, holding is not allowed. In football, holding is not allowed. You tag and run to keep from being tagged. In football, you tackle and defeat…all without holding your opponent to make the play, especially the one with the ball. Games…what matters is who is “it”.

Who is the One in play for you? Who is “IT”? Or, maybe a better question is this…Am I “it” to God, the Father? Am I His beloved? Only you can answer that question today. But know this, if you are a believer whose desire and commitment to follow God’s lead, then you are held firm by God Himself! Holding is allowed by God! So hold onto Him as firming as He holds onto You and you will live well! John, the beloved, closes his first letter with this…

“The God-begotten are also the God-protected. the Evil One can’t lay a hand on them. We know that we are held firm by God; it’s only the people of the world who continue in the grip of the Evil One.” 1 John 5 Msg

“And we know that the Son of God came so we could recognize and understand the truth of God–what a gift!–and we are living in the Truth itself, in God’s Son, Jesus Christ. This Jesus is both True God and Real Life. Dear children, be on guard against all clever facsimiles.” 1 John 5 Msg

TAG…You’re IT! Hold firm and don’t let go of God! He will not let go of You!

In Jesus Name, Amen
