So, I was in the middle of prayer tonight, kneeling beside my bed as I usually do right before I hit the sheets. I glanced down at my hands for a moment and received inspiration to write this...
"Someday These Hands"
Someday these hands will have the power to mend what has been broken and heal what has been hurt.
Someday these hands will comfort the wounded heart and lift up the heavy-burdened.
Someday these hands will touch the face of the one I was created to love.
Someday these hands will put a ring on a finger and bear witness to an oath everlasting.
Someday these hands will hold the life that will call me "father".
Someday these hands will become teacher and protector to a little set of eyes staring up at me.
Someday these hands will have to let go and trust in my Creator's providence.
This day, even now, these hands are laid bare before the Almighty, praying that someday these hands will do all that and more.
