When You said, “Seek My face,” my heart said to You,
“I shall seek Your face, LORD.” Do not hide from me,
… You have been my help; Do not abandon me nor forsake me,
God of my salvation! Psalm 27:8-9
“Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops at all.”
Emily Dickinson
(The composition below includes two views of a HAND sculpture
I completed IN 2002! The following words were written
at that time.)
“Guide my Hand, / Help me Lord / Create a tribute to
Dear friends, / Your own E ~ and B ~ “
“This hand, / Symbol of Your own and theirs
Gives rise to joy and rejoicing.”
“You have blessed, Lord, / completely, with the
Support of friends; / You’ve given comfort, shown compassion;
Never have I been forsaken / nor forgotten ‘though afflicted.”
“Behold, You have Inscribed our Names on the
Palms of Your Hands. (Isaiah 49:13-16)
Shout for joy, O’ heavens! / And rejoice, O’ earth!”
May heaven and earth Bless E ~ and B ~
Servant-Helpers of the Lord, Our God; / For Your helpers and mine
In times of trouble / I praise You El Shaddai!
And Thank You for Your Hands.
