Today’s meditation verse needs a little context, but let’s read it first. It’s Psalm 139, verse 10. Even there, your hand shall lead me, and your right hand shall hold me.
Even there. Where? The Psalmist has said, Where can I go from your presence, Lord? As far away as I can possibly run from you, even there, you’ll still be with me, your hand leading me, your right hand holding me. The point is, we cannot escape from God.
And that’s a good thing, because God is good. We don’t need to escape from Him. Sometimes we want to hide from Him, because we feel guilty, because we are holding on to our sin. But we can’t escape from God.
Job learnt that the hard way. He tried to flee from his duty. He ended up in a boat, and then in the sea, and then in the fish. And God was still with him, wherever he went.
So there’s great reassurance we can take from this verse that no matter what circumstances we face, no matter how dark the road seems, that we are walking down, even there, God is with us.
