None Are Lost

Have you ever felt as though you were adrift? Have felt untethered, like boat bobbing on the water? Are you feeling that way now? Are you seeking to set your feet on solid ground? Do you desire to hear positive news? Will you listen, if you are given the best news of all?

There can be times in our lives when we feel like we have no anchor, there is nothing solid for us to hold on to. Those are troubling times. Our minds wander. We feel unstable. We may even think we will never be stable again. But we simply need to remember the best news of all.

Jesus tells us that no can be snatched from the hand of the Father. Therefore, if we have committed our lives to Jesus, we will always be held by the Father. Those feelings we have are false feelings Satan is using to attempt to pull us away. Yet, Jesus says he cannot. The strong and comforting hands of the Father will continue to hold us.

Here is the other amazing thing Jesus says, He and the Father are one. We may be able fully grasp that, but we can believe it to be true. Why? When we look at Scripture, everything else Jesus said was true. His witness has proven true over and over again. So, even if we do not understand how two (or three) can be one, we can trust that Jesus spoke the truth.

Being in Jesus is the same as being in the Father. Being in God is being in the most stable place we can be. Even during times of unease, we can trust God is working. We may not see him working. We may not feel him working. It may be some time before he reveals the work he has been doing. Yet, we can trust that it will all work out to our good.

I pray we all choose to be in Jesus. I pray we trust that Jesus and the Father are one. I pray each one of us knows that God is always working on our behalf and continue to hold on to him. Choose Jesus. Trust Jesus. Know Jesus and the Father are one. Know God is working. Hold on to God.

John 10:29-30 “My Father, in regard to what he has given me, is greater than all, and no one can snatch them out of the Father’s hand. The Father and I are one.”
