Psalm 77- Hand in Hand

 “I will remember the Lord’s works; yes, I will remember your ancient wonders. I will reflect on all you have done and meditate on your actions. God, your way is holy. What god is great like God? You are the God who works wonders; you revealed your strength among the peoples. You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭77‬:‭11‬-‭14‬, ‭20‬ ‭CSB‬‬

Read Context

This Psalm tells about the familiar feeling of wondering if God is listening or even if He cares while going through something tough.  The portion I copied above is when the author shares the antidote for that feeling: remembering all the things God has done in the past…the last phrase is incredible, “You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.”

I can’t help but remember holding my little kids hands as we walk through a busy parking lot or some other dangerous place.  My intention was to keep them close, safe and guide them through the danger.  Sometimes they held my hand, just because they wanted to be close and felt loved!  That is the same picture that God is wanting us to see Him as…

God, when I feel far from you, help me remember the times you walked with me, hand in hand.  The times where you picked me up and carried me.  Comfort me with vivid memories of how you have always cared for me in the past and have been right there beside me.  I am blessed and loved byYou!
