We Use Our Hands

     We used our hands throughout our lives in doing many things whether or not it was wrong or right. In creation our hands were design by God in the very beginning to do his will. As sons and daughters of God, we were allowed to live upon the land and work in it's fields. We were allowed to build houses and have families. However man discovered something else he could do with his hands taught by the action of Cain. It was Cain who killed his own brother Abel. Cain brought murder into our world. We have a choice, we can use our hands in doing good according to the will of God or we can use our hands just like Cain to bring more suffering into our world.
     Our hands follow the will of our heart. If our heart is good we will do good, if our heart is evil we will do evil. It is clear to me if sin rules over us, our hands will follow sin's desire. Let not our own anger or hatred blind us as to what our own hands are doing. Let peace rule over your heart so that you can see clearly the right way in how to use your hands. Brothers and Sisters let God guide your hands so that you may succeed in accomplishing his will across the land.
     We can use our hands to build and to create what we imagine. We use our hands to write our words. We can use our hands to play musical instruments so to make music that moves our soul. With our hands, we can climb up mountains or we can walk through the valleys. We can do many wonderous things with our hands. The same hands that build huge structures, can also comfort those who are hurting. We can use our hands to do large things or we can do the smallest things to make a difference in our life and in the lives of others.
     I cannot see what everyone is doing with their hands. I only know what my hands are doing. I know that I can choose not to harm anyone. I know that I can use my hands to do good instead of evil. My hands are under my control. I am willing to pledge the use of my hands in God's service in order to bring in his peace and his love into our world. If there are people who are spreading chaos and terror, my hands will not be apart of it. I will not help to bring in more hatred into our world. I want the rule of our Lord and Savior and not someone who uses his hands to do evil. May God help us in showing us how to use our hands so to show our love just like the way Jesus showed his love to us.
