One Pair of Hands




     Recently I ran across a song on the internet sung by the King himself. No, not Jesus but Elvis Presley. I love to hear him sing. I don't think anyone could sing any better than he could. What a set of pipes! Yet, he choose to sing for the world be in the heavens, he sings for the King and I cant wait until I hear him in concert
     But I digest, this article isn’t about the king of rock 'n roll but about the King of Kings and Lord of Lords and what He could do with just one pair of hands, His hands. Have you ever thought about what His hands can do? 
     His hands were the hands of a carpenter and according to the dictionary, the definition of a carpenter is: a woodworker who makes or repair mostly with wooden objects. That’s a physical picture but I want to see things from a spiritual aspect and these hands that I call my King has done great and mighty things. His hands formed the mountains, the seas, the sun, the moon, and the stars. Wow!  Its mind blowing and amazing all in itself.
     But according to Elvis and the findings of the bible study group I am in, His hands have done so much more than what we could even thinking or imagine. We are on a quest to see Jesus in every book every chapter, every verse, and every thing in between. We want to know about the pair of hands that formed the earth, as well as the hands who was willing to hang on a tree for you and for me.
     Great and mighty are these hands and they are worthy of recognition, honor, and the respect that is due to them for without them, I would be lost, dying, in a dry and thirsty land going around the same mountain over and over again crying out for someone to hear me. Thankfully, I have put my life in a pair of hands that promise to never leave me or forsake me and no matter where your at in life you can trust in these pair of hands to pick you up and set you on a path that will ever change your life while putting a song in your heart, a smile on your lips, and trust and faith in a pair of hands will become a second nature. And if your like me who is walking along the path He has set out for me, then join me in singing and thanking Him for one pair of hands.


One pair of hands formed the mountains,
One pair of hands formed the sea
And one pair of hands made the sun and the moon,
Every bird, every flower, every tree
One pair of hands formed the valleys,
The ocean, the rivers and the sand
Those hands are so strong, so when life goes wrong
Put your faith into one pair of hands

One pair of hands healed the sick,
One pair of hands raised the dead
One pair of hands calmed the raging storm
And thousands of people were fed

One pair of hands said I love you
And those hands were nailed to a tree
Those hands are so strong, so when life goes wrong
Put your faith into one pair of hands.

Those hands are so strong, so when life goes wrong
Put your faith into one pair of hands
Put your faith into one pair of h
