Living God, no sanctuary or sacrifice is worthy of your grace, but you offer it as freely as each breath. Receive our meager prayers, that by your blessing, our very lives may become an offering of authentic worship and praise. —Bread for the Day

The Hand of God

Read:
Isaiah 48:12-19

In 1939, with the recent outbreak of war for Britain, King George VI sought in his Christmas Day radio broadcast to encourage citizens of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth to put their trust in God. Quoting a poem that his mother found precious, he said: “Go out into the darkness, and put your hand into the Hand of God. / That shall be to you better than light, and safer than a known way.” He didn’t know what the new year would bring, but he trusted God to “guide and uphold” them in the anxious days ahead.

The image of God’s hand appears in many places in the Bible, including in the book of Isaiah. Through this prophet, God called His people to trust that He as their Creator, “the first and . . . the last” (Isaiah 48:12), would remain involved with them. As He says, “My own hand laid the foundations of the earth, and my right hand spread out the heavens” (v. 13). They should put their trust in Him and not look to those less powerful. After all, He’s their “Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel” (v. 17).

Whatever we face as we look toward the new year, we can follow the encouragement of King George and the prophet Isaiah and place our hope and trust in God. Then, for us too, our peace will be like the river, our “well-being like the waves of the sea” (v. 18).

Reflect:
As you consider the new year, what situations or relationships could you entrust to God? How does the image of His hand speak to you?

Pray:
All-powerful God, You created the heavens and the earth and yet You cherish me. I place my trust in You. Amen.
