EMPTY HANDS
Unless our hands are empty
of things that cause us pain,
God won't fill us with anything new,
or make us whole again.
So if your hands hold bitterness,
sadness or other bad things,
empty your hands at Jesus' cross,
and be filled with the love God brings.
- by Netagene, written in a few minutes on October 20, 2012. I got the idea from "God doesn't give us something new unless our hands are empty", from the 2007 novel: "Just Beyond the Clouds" by Karen Kingsbury.
About Me
- Netagene
- I am a member of the church of Christ. I have been writing things since I was little. Some have been printed, some posted. I write to teach or encourage; to blow off steam; and for fun! I had my own motorcycle in my 40s; I was a bluegrass music DJ for about 13 years; I've performed some. I am a member of the NRA. In 2003 (age 59), I became high partial legally blind; in 2005, I had to get hearing aids! Franklin Field said: "Poor eyes limit your sight; poor vision limits your deeds". And no kidding, the picture was made April, 2012!
