Psalm 37:23-24

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 37:23-24

This is such a reassuring verse. It’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking that we have to do everything exactly right in order to secure God’s support and backing and that somehow if we make a mistake God backs off and says “well you’re on your own now buddy!”. There is room for us to make mistakes, just like normal kids. Their parents don’t love or support them any less because they got it wrong or make a mistake.

Joyce Meyers talks in her book ‘How to Hear from God’ about how God redeems us from our mistakes if our hearts are right. She recalls an incident where she said to God “Lord what if I miss You? Oh I’m so scared, what if I miss You?” God answered simply “Joyce don’t worry; if you miss me I will find you.

It’s nice to know God has your back and if you keep your conscience clear before God you can step out with confidence knowing that God is holding you securely in His hand.
