God's Hands

Wishing to encourage her young son's progress on the piano, a mother took her boy to a Paderewski concert. After they were seated, the mother spotted a friend in the audience and walked down the aisle to greet her. Seizing the opportunity to explore the wonders of the concert hall, the little boy rose and eventually explored his way through a door marked "NO ADMITTANCE."

When the house lights dimmed and the concert was about to begin, the mother returned to her seat and discovered that the child was missing.

Suddenly, the curtains parted and spotlights focused on the impressive Steinway on stage. In horror, the mother saw her little boy was sitting at the keyboard, innocently picking out "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star." At that moment, the great piano master made his entrance, quickly moved to the piano, and whispered in the boy's ear, "Don't quit. Keep playing."

Then, leaning over, Paderewski reached down with his left hand and began filling in a bass part. Soon his right arm reached around to the other side of the child and he added a running obligato. Together, the old master and the young novice transformed a frightening situation into a wonderfully creative experience. The audience was so mesmerized they couldn't recall what else the great master played. Only the classic "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star."

That's the way it is with God. What we can accomplish on our own is hardly noteworthy. We try our best, but the results aren't exactly graceful flowing music. But with the hand of the Master, our life's work truly can be beautiful. Next time you set out to accomplish great feats, listen carefully. You can hear the voice of the Master, whispering in your ear, "Don't quit. Keep playing."

Feel His loving arms around you. Know that His strong hands are there helping you turn your feeble attempts into true masterpieces.

Remember, God doesn't call the equipped, He equips the called. And He'll always be there to love and guide you on to great things. Life is more accurately measured by the lives you touch than the things you acquire.

Have a blessed day!

Dear God in Heaven,
Would you please bless the woman's faith, all her needs

blessings of good thoughts towards her dreams, and her love for you to grow even more. Thank you God for her and for what you do in her!
In Jesus Christ's Holy Name. Your Great Son, and Our Saviour!

But let him who glories glory in this, That he understands
and knows Me, That I am the Lord, which exercises lovingkindness,
judgment, and righteousness in the earth. For in these I delight,"
says the Lord.
Jeremiah 9: 24
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
He shall judge the world in righteousness,
And He shall administer judgment for the peoples in uprightness.
Psalm 9: 8
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Do not remember the former things, nor consider the
things of old.
Behold, I will do a new thing, now it shall spring forth; shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness
and river in the desert.
Isaiah 43: 18, 19

Dear Vrinda,
Thank you for praying for my son JM. Like the little boy who played Twinkle Twinkle, my son is also talented. As a young adult he is not seeking God's help. Please continue to pray that he will ask God to help him reach his potential in life. You are in my prayers.

vrindas - 5 months ago: Psalm 27:14 ''Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD.''
