God's hands are bigger than ours. Who else has held the oceans in His hand? Who has measured off the heavens with His fingers? (Isaiah 40:12) That big, to be precise. Logically who would be able to hold on to more? Mortal man or the Immortal God? The Immortal God obviously, so when we hold on to something really tight, we're bound to lose it.
But God, whose hands hold the stars and
oceans, can hold our entire world and not flinch when trouble comes, because He knows He is more powerful than anything in the universe. When you give something to God, you're investing into your future. God is better than the best bank. He will safeguard your belongings and add to them as you continue to trust Him.
If we hang on tightly to the things we love, in our own strength, we make perfect prey for the thief. He will come when you're not ready and take it away from you. But if he sees that God is holding on to the things you love, he will not bother trying to steal it, because he knows that he is no match for the Almighty God who can crush his skull in a nanosecond. So you see, God is the safest place you can run to in times of happiness, turmoil and pain. He will always protect you and your loved ones.
