He Holds My Hand

It was a month ago yesterday on June 9 that we received the diagnosis of Jerry's leukemia. What a month. Getting the diagnosis, going into Duke Hospital, receiving the chemo, waiting for results, going into the lowest valley imaginable, waiting to climb to the top of the mountain again. We probably have went through every emotion that's possible for a human being to go through. But through all of this we believe God was right there with us holding our hands.

Isaiah 41:13
For I the LORD thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee.

GOD HOLDS MY HAND

The Lord holds my hand as I go through each day.
He keeps me from falling and going astray.
When the way seems hard and storm clouds appear,
He holds my hand, and I have no fear.
When burdens are heavy and in times of need,
I'll hold tight to His hand and let Him lead.
His mercy and His love will never fail,
For in His hand is the print of the nail.
-Patricia Rice


We love you and have a great Sunday!!
