I cling to you; your strong right hand holds me securely. Psalm 63:8 Dont you just love the thought of this passage? The idea that God would long to be that intimate with us even before Christ covered our sins is truly amazing. David felt God’s nearness and presence the most in the desert. Sometimes intimacy with God requires desert experiences. It is only when God is all we have that we really come to see and experience Him for who He is. One doesn’t cling to God if one is distracted by the world. Clinging to God is felt only by those who detach from this world and open their eyes to the gifts of heaven. Do you find yourself clinging to God? Have you ever felt so loved and connected to Him that you begged Him not to leave you. Difficult circumstances lead us to cling to God. Maintaining the longing to cling to Him when difficulties lift is the real spiritual challenge. Set your soul to cling to God. Observe all the ways that His right hand upholds you. Open your heart, mind and soul to see His goodness to you moment by moment. Experience the spiritual reality of clinging to God. Today, as you move through life, cling to Jesus. Hang on to Him. Acknowledge His presence.
