He will hold you together

"He existed before anything else, and He holds all creation together."   
                                                                                     Colossians 1:17   NLT 

Jesus was there at the beginning. He was there when the Spirit of God hovered over the waters and all around was in total darkness. He was there when creation took place. The New Living Translation puts it this way:

'Christ is the visible image of the invisible God. He existed before anything was created and is supreme over all creation, 16 for through Him, God created everything in the heavenly realms and on the earth. He made all things we can see and all things we can't see - such as thrones, kingdoms, rulers and authorities in the unseen world. Everything was created through Him and for Him. 17 He existed before anything else, and He holds all creation together'  
                                                                                     Colossians 1:15-17

Note the words, 'He holds all creation together', this includes you. If He can hold the planets in place, you can be confident that He can hold you together too. Things may have been difficult just lately - things going wrong, disappointments and ever-rising costs causing money shortages.  
It may feel like things are falling apart but, if Jesus holds things together, He can certainly help here. Your health may have been causing you concern and there doesn't appear to be a remedy. Don't forget, He holds your health together too. Because on the cross, 'By His wounds you are healed' 1 Peter 2:24. Receive your healing by faith, this is one of the reasons He died on the cross for us. 'Yes,' you may say, 'but not everyone is healed, are they? That is true, but it should never stop us from receiving our healing. Many can testify to being healed, myself included.

You may feel that everything around you is falling apart - things keep going wrong and it is getting tedious. Stop right there! If you have asked Jesus into your life, He is right there beside you, He can hold things together for you, including yourself. Try to avoid the 'victim mentality' and replace it with a, 'Jesus mentality'. This is far better. If you are in Jesus, you are not a victim, you are an overcomer, you have the victory.

Begin to see yourself this way. Allow Jesus to hold you together and begin to live in victory!
