Hi Nancy,

Thank you so much for making this praying hands post. I thought it was beautiful when you read it in Sunday prayer and fellowship.

My favorite part is:

"But he who makes a sacrifice, so another may succeed is indeed a true disciple of our blessed Savior’s creed- For when we give ourselves away in sacrifice and love. We are “laying up rich treasures” in God’s kingdom up above-"

I love that :-) It makes me think of the following Bible verse:

Mark 9:35 (NIV)
Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said, “Anyone who wants to be first must be the very last, and the servant of all.”

Hello All,

My mother’s favorite praying hands and faith! The “Praying Hands” are much, much more than a work of art. They are the “soul’s creation” of a deeply thankful heart- They are a Priceless Masterpiece that love alone could paint. And they reveal the Selfishness of an unheralded saint- These hands so scarred and toilworn, tell the story of a man who sacrificed his talent in accordance with God’s plan- For in God’s plan are many things man cannot understand, But we must trust God’s judgment and be guided by his Hand- Sometimes He ask us to give up our dreams of happiness, Sometimes we must forego our hopes of fortune and success. Not all of can triumph or rise to heights of fame, And many times what should be ours goes to another name- But he who makes a sacrifice, so another may succeed is indeed a true disciple of our blessed Savior’s creed- For when we give ourselves away in sacrifice and love. We are “laying up rich treasures” in God’s kingdom up above- And hidden in gnarled, toilwore hands is the truest Art of Living. Achieved alone by those who’ve learned the “Victory of giving” For any sacrifice on earth, made in the dear Lord’s name, Assures the gift of a place in Heaven’s Hall of Fame-And who can say with certainty Where the Greatest Talent Lies, or Who will be the Greatest In Our Heavenly Father’s Eyes!
