In the past, Harriet Tubman, an abolitionist, said, “I said to the Lord, I’m going to hold steady on to you, and I know you will see me through”. In the recent past (passed 10/4/22), Loretta Lynn, a singer, said on a 4/17 Instagram post, “My faith means a lot to me…Jesus is my friend…I keep holding His hand.”
It’s so important to embrace our faith! In 1 Timothy 1:19, Paul wrote, “19 holding on to faith and a good conscience, which some have rejected and so have suffered shipwreck with regard to the faith.”
I still read an online Billy Graham devotional most nights before I go to sleep. A recent devotional focused on John 8:32 where Jesus said, “Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
I picked up R. C. Sproul’s, The Reformation Study Bible to see if I can insert Jesus’ name in my mind for “the truth” in that verse. Their interpretation of that verse said,”Holding to the teaching of Christ who is the truth (14:6) leads one to the truth that sets a person free from slavery to sin. Salvation is not obtained by intellectual knowledge as the Gnostics imagined, but by a vital relationship with Jesus Christ and a commitment to the truth He revealed (18:37).”
Embrace Jesus.
