In the Hollow of His Hand

IN THE HOLLOW OF HIS HAND As we travel through this weary land Lord, keep us in the hollow of Your Hand Help us, Lord, to look at others And treat them as our sisters and brothers Let us see those who are lost And minister to them, whatever the cost Let us be willing to take a stand While You keep us in the hollow of Your Hand When trials and tribulations get us down Let us not grumble, but stand our ground Help us to see the grace in Your plan As You keep us safely in the hollow of Your Hand And let us feel the agony of Christ As He died on the cross to give us life And when on Jordan's bank we stand We'll be resting eternally in the hollow of Your Hand

Thank you Sue. I love winning contests. It can be exciting, humbling, and rewarding. I'm honored to have won. Most of my poems act as a silent witness. They are written to let any Soup readers who may not know Christ as Lord and Savior to give thought to making Him just that.

Eileen: Thanks for your kind words. If we place ourselves and all our cares in His hands, He will show us His love, mercy, and grace in amazing ways. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
