Today's Bible Promise -"Christ Jesus...laid hold of me." Philippians 3:12

Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me. Philippians 3:12

Prayer
Jesus holds me in His arms and will never let me go. Loving Jesus, I thank You for laying hold of me and rescuing me from a life of disaster. Give me the spirit of perseverance like Paul, that I may press on towards the finish line when I shall see You face to face. Let the eyes of my heart be enlightened, so that I may know what is the hope of Your calling, the riches of Your glory, and the surpassing greatness of Your power working in me. Hold me Jesus and never let me go for You are my Lord and King who cares for me. In Your precious name I pray

Hold me Jesus (Rich Mullin): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gBGGX3yvMo

Well, sometimes my life
Just don't make sense at all,
When the mountains look so big
And my faith just seems so small.

So hold me Jesus, 'cause I'm shaking like a leaf
You have been King of my glory
Won't You be my Prince of Peace?

Surrender don't come natural to me
I'd rather fight You for something
I don't really want
Than to take what You give that I need
And I've beat my head against so many walls
Now I'm falling down, I'm falling on my knees.

So hold me Jesus, 'cause I'm shaking like a leaf
You have been King of my glory
Won't You be my Prince of Peace?
