TOPIC: Clinging
Hate what is evil; cling to what is good.
Romans 12:9 (NIV)
Recommended Reading: Romans 12:9-13
A diver in Korea was found earlier this year clinging to a broken surfboard. The man had become lost from his friends and disoriented in the water. All he could do was cling to the board despite suffering from hypothermia. He recovered from the ordeal, but imagine how tightly he must have gripped the board that saved him!
That’s how we should grip the things of the Lord! The psalmist said, “I cling to you; your right hand upholds me” (Psalm 63:8, NIV). Deuteronomy 30:20 says, “Cling to Him, for He is your life.” Psalm 119:31 says, “I cling to Your testimonies,” referring to God’s Word. And Romans 12:9 tells us to “cling to what is good.”
Clinging to what is good is more than just avoiding what is evil. It involves actively looking for the good things God is doing and finding hope and joy in these things. The world around us is filled with evil. We must avoid it with all our hearts and make sure we are clinging to the Lord Himself, gripping Him tightly, along with His Word and His good works for us. Today, strengthen your grip!
