In God's Hands

I am malleable in God’s hands, 
No one can shape me like He can, 
He never gives me anything that I can’t handle, 
He always knows what He is doing, 
No one can compare to Him, 
He is the father I never had, 
I can truly trust, love, and honor Him, 
Because He made me, 
He loves me, 
And I love Him, 
I will never be able to put my heart into someone else’s hands with such trust!
Because He is love! 
And I am His. 
- Inspired by Jeremiah 18:6 

                                                  
                                                  Jeremiah 18:6 NIV
“O house of Israel, can I not do with you as the potter does? declares the Lord. 
“Like clay in the hands of potter, so are you in my hand, O house of Israel.

In Better Hands" It's hard to stand On shifting sand It's hard to shine In the shadows of the night You can't be free If you don't reach for help And you can't love If you don't love yourself But there is hope when my faith runs out... Cuz I'm in better hands now [Chorus:] It's like the sun is shining When the rain is pourin' down It's like my soul is flying Though my feet are on the ground So take this heart of mine There's no doubt I'm in better hands now I am strong All because of you I stand in awe of Every mountain that you move I am changed Yesterday is gone I am safe From this moment on... And there's no fear when the night comes 'round I'm in better hands now
