Great Quotes — Seven

It’s time to update you on some of the ways God has used my word recently — the word is “Hold.”  I’m amazed to see all the uses of this word.  Here are more of the quotes and scriptures I’ve jotted down in my “Hold” notebook.

He gives the childless woman a household, making her the joyful mother of children.  Hallelujah!  –Psalm 113:9 [HCSB]

He holds victory in store for the upright, he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless, for he guards the course of the just and protects the way of his faithful ones.  – Proverbs 2:7-8 [NIV SB]

Sometimes He holds us close and lets the wind and waves go wild…Sometimes He calms the storm and other times He calms His child. — Scott Krippayne

A Christian is a person who decides to face and live through suffering…No glib smart answers.  No lectures on our misfortunes…No hasty Band-Aid treatments covering up our trouble so the rest of society doesn’t have to look at it.  None of that:  the suffering is held up and proclaimed — and prayed.  – Eugene H. Peterson, God’s Message for Each Day

For I am the LORD, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you.  – Isaiah 41:13 [NIV SB]
