I will praise you as long as I live,
and in your name I will lift up my hands.
Psalm 63:4 NIV
Heaping handfuls of love…
Hands that hold
Hands to help
Hands that grow old.
Hands that create
Hands that upon us lay
Hands to stir
Hands that play.
Hands that write sweet words
Hands that give and share
Hands our burdens bare
Hands that heal
And hands that feel.
Hands that are itty bitty
Hands to lend
Hands that caress
Hands that can mend.
Hands that speak
Hands that work
Hands to reach and keep.
Hands that lift and pray
Hands to fold
Hands to cover
Hands so bold.
But I prayed, "Now strengthen my hands."
Nehemiah 6:9 NIV
29/30 Today I am grateful for my hands and for the hands of others in my life.

Thank you so much for those wonderful texts of Scripture about our hands - I've just been studying our hearts and eyes and mouths in God's Word and hands are next!
