Hands

“That night the Lord appeared to him and said, ‘I am the God of your father Abraham.  Do not be afraid, for I am with you…”  Genesis 26:24

A significant drop in the use of my hands today, Lord.  Resorting to using a rubber grip on my pen and a writing  style that is a combination of cursive and printing.  Having to take it slowly so it can be read.  Shakiness in hands increasing and in my entire body.  Thank You, Lord, for making sure that I can do everything You want me to do and that You receive all the glory for all that I do.  You continue to amaze me as I more clearly understand Your Word that says “… Apart from Me you can do nothing.”  (John 15:5)  Not only can I not do anything eternal without You….. I can do nothing earthly without You.  So very thankful that You are with me, leading and guiding my every step and never leaving nor forsaking me.  So, instead of complaining and whining about these decreased abilities, I will praise You in the storm and give thanks for Your faithfulness and Your love.  Praise You from Whom all blessings flow.  

“I can do everything through Him Who gives me strength.”  Philippians 4:13
