Your Hand in God’s

 

“I said to the man

who stood at the gate of the year,

‘Give me a light that I may tread safely

into the unknown.’

And he replied ,

‘Go out into the darkness

and put your hand into the hand of God.

That shall be to you

better than light

and safer than a known way !’

So I went forth

and finding the Hand of God,

trod gladly into the night .

And he led me towards the hills

and the breaking of day in the lone East.”

 

(Minnie Louise Harkins 1875-1957)

 

May God bless us all in the year that lies ahead – and enable us to walk forward with our hands in His, as He leads, directs and encourages us.
