Our hands

I think we all have things we notice in others from eyes to whatever. I notice different things to but I always look at people's hands. This is a part of the body that is used constantly. I think this is a special part that we forget about. Our hands can do so much and show our lives and how we are.

What made me think of this was at church, hands can show love to others, while holding a lovely ladies hands and sharing a moment with her, I held her hands. Love just comes through. When someone walks by and just places a hand on your shoulder, it's showing they care. Our hands work so hard everyday and there are some of us whose hands have a hard time with everyday tasks. 

I love when my daughter puts her small sweet hand in mine or my son with his big hands just cover mine, I feel love and I smile. My husband will pat my hand or for fun will hold the end of my finger which is sweet. Just think about all the touches you have recieved with love. To me it's just like a hug, if you don't feel it don't do it. I like real hugs, I like holding hands of those I love. Lida Harper is one of my favorites, she just exudes love. The one lady that made me think of this was Mary Nell, just a simple touch that just gave comfort meant so much. Like the Bible says, laying on of hands. We need healing, let's pray and place our loving hands on them. 

I know this my sound odd but this is me not always normal, hands can show so much love or do harm. I prefer to show love. In someone's hands you can tell that time has worked them hard. I noticed the other day that Anthony's hands look like his dad's. Same shape and same memory of hard work. Our hands are a great use of goodness. I know when I don't have words to say I can hug you or place my hand in yours to show I care. I'm a touchy feely person anyway but in a good way. Sometime pay attention to someone's hands and how they use them. See how much love you feel through them. Today I'm thankful for my hands. I can rub my child's head or back, I can wipe a tear as a friend did for me, Tracy Noles and I can shake a hand to meet or invite someone in. If the hand of God is everywhere maybe it's our hands He's using. Have a great day.
