Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve me against the wrath of my enemies; you stretch out your hand, and your right hand delivers me. The Lord will fulfil his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O Lord, endures for ever. Do not forsake the work of your hands. (Psalm 138: 7-8)
The hand of God is offered to me. But I must choose to accept it. I must open my hand and hold the hand of God.
Together with God my purpose is fulfilled. Whether this purpose is easy or hard changes over time and circumstance. But together with God whatever the struggle and its outcome, good purposes will be advanced.
When I try to walk the path alone I often choose the wrong way. Alone the struggle can seem insurmountable. Walking hand in hand with God I make good progress. Even when storms and trouble descend on the path I do not lose my way.
