Hands Can Do So Much

Hands are used by most people, all day, everyday. Hands do so much, give, take, recieve, touch, hold, love, and help. Among the good things they do, they also do bad things. Hit, harm, kill, flick (off), and hold an extremely discusting amount of germs. What are they meant for? You might say 'Derek, come on, they are meant to get the job done, nothing more.' But my response to you is, then what are we for? I guess you could compare our hands to ourselves; hard working, always moving around, and like us, when the job is done they rest. So if we, like our hands, are meant to just "get the job done", then what?

"No its different, we are people and they are hands". Yes, but cats are cats and dogs are dogs, the both do the same thing, entertain humans and keep us company. But they arent the same. If we like hands just got the job done then call it quits, then i might be questioning life. There is more to life then just the work of our world. God calls us to use our hands to work for Him. In all the things we do we must do it for Him.

If you think about it, sometimes our hands speak louder then our words. We greet each other with them, hold hands with that significant other, or hide ourselves by putting our hands in our pockets. There is no getting around the fact that hands, act like us. They shake and sweat when we are nervous. The clench when we are angry. And reach out to God in a time of need. Our hands do way more then you can imagine.

The purpose of our hands is to get the job done, but what job are you doing? God works in amazing ways, and He tends to show Himself though the actions of His people. Not that He doesn't do anything, but rather, we are the working hands of God. We can make a difference, and its always talk and no walk, change it. Make your hands do the work of God, because if you do it through Him, you WILL see a difference.




PEACE. LOVE. JESUS CHRIST.
