The Hands of God

“And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them.” Mark 10:13

Denial – “Spirit does not have physical hands.”

Affirmation – “My hands are the hands of God.”

There is a Divine Purpose for your life and your hands help you fulfill that purpose. Your hands are gifts from God and your touch is a blessing to the universe. God designed your hands in such a way that each hand has five fingers. Your fingers work together to show you the importance of collaboration and connection with others.  Each finger on each hand has a unique set of prints. Your fingerprints illustrate your diversity and all the aspects of yourself that come together to make you who you are. 

A big part of the ministry of Jesus, our Wayshower, was touch (John 5:15-21).  He touched people and they were blessed. People touched him and they were healed. He realized that the power of God was in his very fingertips. Jesus was also aware of people’s need to touch him to help them to connect with their own Christ consciousness. 

You have the same power in your hands to heal and bless yourself and others. Follow your internal guidance and be willing to touch people in appropriate ways. Sometimes the initiation of touch may come from the other person and sometimes the Holy Spirit may lead you to ask a person, “Can I give you a hug?” Even in the times where you may not desire to touch or to be touched, align your soul with your spirit by reminding yourself that your hands are the hands of God. 

Reflection Question – How have you used your hands today? 

Thanksgiving Activity – List and celebrate all the things that you can do with your hands.

Universe Means One Thing: Love

  Universe Means One Thing: Love "For all the law is fulfilled in this one word, love: Love your neighbor as yourself."   Galatians 5:14 (KSB)    Sometimes, the word “universe” can feel mysterious even spooky to some. Others think it's irreverent or sacrilegious when used in spiritual conversations. But what if we redefined it? What if “universe” simply meant love? What if it meant God, since God is love?  When we say, “the universe,” we can think of it as pointing to one word love. Just one word. The entire Bible, composed of 66 books and written by over 40 different authors, ultimately speaks to one central theme: love. From beginning to end, this divine book points us toward loving God, loving ourselves, and loving others.  In the Old Testament, God's people had 636 laws civil, ceremonial, and moral. They guided everything from relationships to religious festivals. But then Jesus came and said, “Let me make this simple Love God. Love yourself. L...

Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement

  Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement "For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love."   Galatians 5:6 (KSB)    With everything going on around us, it's easy to feel lost. Distractions come quickly, disappointments pile up, and discouragement sneaks in. We all face these moments. But even when we get off track, there is a way back and that path is through our faith, principles, and core values.  When you live your life anchored in principles, it gives you a compass for when the road gets unclear. Knowing your vision, your mission, and your core values makes it easier to realign when life feels out of control. But if you don’t know who you are, how can you get back to being your best self? If you don’t know what you stand on, what can you stand up on after a fall?    Clarity of purpose keeps you ...

Hidden Treasure: You Are a Vessel, Not Just an Instrument

I AM Not an Instrument. I AM a Vessel “But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.” – 2 Corinthians 4:7 (KSB) Hidden in Plain Sight The image that Paul presents in 2 Corinthians 4 is that of a treasure hidden within an earthen vessel. In the Old Testament, people didn’t have locks, alarm systems, or cameras to protect their valuables. Instead, their belongings were often left exposed, making them vulnerable to thieves and robbers. To safeguard their most valuable treasures, they would hide them in jars of clay—earthen vessels—placing them in plain sight. A thief or robber would never think to look there because it wasn’t an obvious hiding place. Likewise, God has placed something valuable inside of you—a treasure of great worth. Yet, people often fail to see it. You may be right in front of them, but they don’t recognize your gifts, skills, talents, anointing, abilities, or sensitivities. You are hidden in plain sight bec...
