Nan was the one who 'gave' me the graphic for today's opening a long time ago - I knew I'd be using it somehow, someday, because those hands have so much story in them. Do you remember them, Nan?
You know, Billie, I actually do not remember that graphic. Old age is not for wimps. The graphic reminds me of all the dear saints of God whose hands I’ve held as they passed from this earthly realm. There is something healing about the human touch though. We are going to have a healing/anointing service Tuesday evening for a man who had a stroke and is having trouble recovering. Thanks for reminding me how much we depend on our fellow human beings for comfort.
