Who do your hands represent today?
March 14, 2019
BIBLE MEDITATION:
The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness; according to the cleanness of my hands hath He recompensed me. Psalm 18:20
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
During WWII, a beautiful cathedral in Europe was destroyed by the Nazis. When the people came together to rebuild the cathedral, they found the remains of a statue of Christ with His hands outstretched. They repaired the statue as best they could, but they could not recover the hands. Because they loved the statue as it was, they put a plaque underneath that reads: “He has no hands but our hands.”
Remember this—Jesus Christ is the invisible part of you, the Christian. The Christian is the visible part of Christ. He is seen in us and through us. We are the visible part of the invisible Christ.
ACTION POINT:
What we do in His name represents Him to the world. What are you doing with your hands today that is a testimony of Jesus Christ to a watching and lost world?

Front Porch Moments by Gayle Foster
WITH KEY INSIGHTS FROM HER FATHER, ADRIAN ROGERS
I try to unplug each morning with Jesus with just my rocking chair, my Bible, and a pen.
Having a secret place is very important because I know that Jesus is always there waiting for me. I know where I can find Him! His presence is everywhere, but there are places where it is so thick you can cut it with a knife. You may not even have a front porch, but there is a secret place for you as well. God’s invitations are for anyone who will respond. There is no more important request than the one found in Psalm 27:8: “My heart has heard You say, ‘Come and talk with Me.’ And my heart responds, ‘Lord, I am coming.’”
