Do not fear, for I am with you;
do not be afraid, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you; I will help you;
I will hold on to you with my righteous right hand.
Isaiah 41:10 (CSB)

This is the promise for us today: God holds me when I am overwhelmed.

There is just so much right now. Everyday there are new changes to how we are to behave and distance ourselves from one another. There are the canceled plans going all the way through the summer and the unknown of what fall will bring. There is the stress from having to be and do all the things at home while also having both too much time and not enough time. It is all so overwhelming.

But we can cry out for help from the One who holds us tightly by the hand and never lets go. When we need somewhere to turn or someone to comfort us, we have God to hold us when everything becomes too much. He is right here with arms wide open to carry us through these days.
