What’s In Your Hands?

wfw-2008

 

Hands

There is one thing that God has given equally to all of us everyday…time.   Time is something we can use in helping others or lose on so many missed opportunities.

A listening ear,

A shoulder to  cry on,

A ride to the store,

A phone call just to say “Hi”,

An unexpected gift,

A visit to a friend going through a difficult time,

A card that says, “I care and I’m thinking of you”!

Time is truly in your hands.  Invest it well. 

“Lord, help me to see what you want to put in my hands today.  Let me be sensitive to the Holy Spirit when He says, “Go”.  Thank you for your outstretched hands that have touched me, healed me, and cared for me in so many ways.  May I be your hands touching someone in the very same way.”

Adorable picture and cute reminder; It's such a encouragement that we are designed not only to receive His blessings but particularly to share it with those who need it the most! God bless you!

Agreeing in prayer with you! Amen!

Our Lord has been sharing "how to use my time" more & more with me practically everywhere I go.

Beautifully connected Scripture! Thanks for sharing WFW with us, HL

And we need to do it to the Glory of God, because it is passing ever so quickly. I wonder whose hands they are? One of your little doll baby grandgirls I'm sure!

Know that I'm continuing to pray!
John 14:1-3: Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

Amen my friend! I'm echoing your prayer as I head into this Thursday morning. Thank you so much for sharing. I love that photo of those precious hands, too. = ) Great reminder...thanks again!

Thanks for stopping by to see the Nicole Johnson post, and your kind words. I miss visiting more often and think of you often, as well. I'll have to look up that video. = )

Sorry it took a while, but just FYI, I've finally posted my thoughts on the final weeks of Beth Moore's Esther Bible study! You had asked if I would, but the Christmas season was too hectic, so I didn't get around to it 'til afterward. ;)

How did you like the study? Personally, I absolutely LOVED it! It's my favorite, so far, with "Breaking Free" coming in at a close second. ;)

Dear Susan,

Thank you for stopping by my blog and leaving such a beautiful comment and praying for my dear sweet sister. They just took her up to surgery at 12:16 P.M. this afternoon. I will be hearing from my nephew later on today when she comes out from surgery then I will post what I find out.

Your words here inspire me, especially today. You have touched deeply on how I feel inside, of who I am and a reminder again of all of who He wants me to be...such a beautiful post from a beautiful heart.

Thank you from my heart.

Peace & blessings,
Alleluiabelle
