The Works of Your Hands

“She extends her hand to the poor, Yes, she reaches out her hands to the

needy.”

Proverbs 31:20 

Do I mind my own business, a task God has called me to do?


Do I bring glory to God with tasks of my hands?


Do I work faithfully in my day to day life as an act of worship for the Lord?


Look down and examine your hands. Are they young or old? Do they have sun spots? Are there veins showing? Do you think your hands are pretty? It is said that our hands are the first places to show any age. Our hands are busy tending to husbands, children, gardening, shopping, housekeeping or helping the needy. What a blessing our hands are!


What do your hands do? Do you show the Lord the glory he deserves with the acts of your hands? You can do a whole days of work whether its wifely duties, working outside of the home, working with children, whatever your job may be. Are you being kind, caring and loving with your work? Are you doing it with a good attitude? Are you thanking God for the day he has given you and the tasks that he has laid before you? 


I know lots of questions but it's something to think about. Instead of complaining about a little house work, or that last hour in the office saying it's been such a long day and you need to get home be thankful for the the hard working hands God gave you!


Prayer for today. 
Lord I am so very thankful for the hands you have given me. Help me to show you glory through the works of my hands everyday in everything I do. Help me to look passed the looks of my hands and remember the beauty of my hands and the works they do in honor of you! - Amen
