In His Hands

Do you ever forget how old you are? I did it again. I carried a large clay flower pot down my back steps without holding on to the rail. It’s only a couple of steps but with the heavy pot, I got unbalanced and started falling toward the concrete driveway. Miraculously enough, I stumbled ahead enough to right myself and didn’t fall. I thanked God for having mercy! Psalm 37:23, NRSV: “Our steps are made firm by the Lord, when he delights in our way; though we stumble, we shall not fall headlong, for the Lord holds us by the hand.”
