And don't you be afraid
Joy comes in the morning
Troubles they don't last always
For there's a friend in Jesus
Who will wipe your tears away
And if your heart is broken
Just lift your hands and say
I know that I can make it
I know that I can stand
No matter what may come my way
My life is in your hands.
Kirk Franklin
Here are some pictures I have taken over the last few years of hands: young and old, strong and tiny, hard and soft, talented and stony. Each one tells a story, but that's for another day...
"Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me;
You will stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies,
And your right hand will save me."
Psalm 138:7

In His hands - that's where I always want to be. What a meaningful photo essay on hands!

Lovely post, Ginny.. reminds me of my mother's hands which brought me up through tears and joy..
I wanted to wave back to your header Ginny.
This is a wonderful series of photos, hands tell such a great story. The last one of Ella is just precious.
Wonderful words of life! Your collection of hands is, no pun intended, touching. And I love the header hands. I couldn't read the text on the sign, so I hope we do get "the rest of the story! A moving post! Have a great week!
This is a good assortment of hands! Great reminder of hands
this is most possibly my most favorite of all your posts. i like all the hands and each one tells it's own story. i love the two with the child's hand in the adult hand, they touch the heart. amazing post, can't wait to hear the story for each one. you can do a week of post just telling each story. super job Ginny
Touching post, hands can say so much by looking at them and a touch from them calms the soul.
Beautiful hand pictures Ginny!
And lovely lovely post!
An amazing series of photos today! Love them!
you did it again Ginny. You grabbed my attention from the awesome header right down to your fab words...you`re so cool.
Hi Ginny, A nice post today as usual. I like your pictures a lot. I have terrible looking hands myself at the moment. I am house painting (interior) so I have scrubbed my paws raw. Have an excellent day!
I like the title of your blog. Those pictures are neat.
Yeah, I messed with the rattlesnakes. I grew up around them and know to keep my distance. I was no closer than 4 feet to the one that was a little riled.
That last one is especially touching ... great verse!
Ginny I love pictures of hands - they tell such a story! They carry so many stories that you can't tell them all - but they are there none the less. They show love to me.
I love hand pictures. btw the train is really in Vermont and it was Arlo Guthrie who did that song.
First thing, LOVE your header photo...but all the others are great...enjoyed this post!
Beautifully done, Ginny! This entire post is visual poetry. Hands say so much, don't they?
Some lovely hand-holding pictures in this post.
What an awesome post. I love the poem. Those are some snazzy fingernails in that one picture
Awesome in every way. As soon as I saw the title of your post, I started humming that Kirk Franklin song. Love it!
Love it! I think you might enjoy linking up for Brag on His Fridays.
Interesting post. Hands are amazing. They do tell many stories.
Thank you for sharing with us.
