Hands




We shake hands. We eat with our hands. We clean ourselves with our hands. We use our hands to make connections with the world in which we live. Imagine God's hand stretched out to you. Imagine God's hand delivering you. You are the work of God's hands. Therefore, God will never forsake you.

"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 fulfill his purpose for me;
your steadfast love, O LORD, endures forever.
Do not forsake the work of your hands."
Psalm 138:7-8
Speaking of hands, how about these?



For more about hands read this New York Times Magazine feature called "Working with your Hands."
