Be Held

I wrote a poem towards the beginning of 2024 in a note on my phone. If I remember correctly, it was while I was thousands of feet in the air, flying either to or from a trip to visit with family. I wrote it and life went on. I forgot about it until today when I opened up the notes app on my phone looking for another recent idea that I had typed up. It fits for closing out 2024 and starting 2025 and I honestly wish I would have remembered it a few months ago! So here it is, out in the world and hopefully where I (and you) can look and be encouraged and reminded that God holds us always and nothing is impossible for Him.

Be Held

Thank you, God,
for carrying us,
Though we are
just a speck of dust.
Your tender hand
full of might
grabs hold of us
and embraces us tight.
Life is hard –
You see us through,
nothing we experience
is too hard for You.
