The Art Of Thy Hands


If I had a million tongues, they would still fall short of telling the beauty Your hands have shaped. Every line of creation bears the quiet signature of Your touch, and every breath I take feels borrowed from Your mercy. How can I speak of the wonder of Your work the way morning is gently awakened by Your command, and evening bows in reverence at Your whisper? You call the sun to rise, and it obeys without hesitation You bid it rest, and the skies surrender into night. And I I stand in the middle of it all, undone. Undone by a beauty too vast for language, too holy for mere description. For Your art is not just seen, it is felt in the trembling of the soul, in the stillness that steals the breath from my chest. Oh, what is man, that he should witness such glory? Yet here I am held between sunrise and sunset, breathing in a masterpiece that never ceases to be made.

Wow. Just wow. I love how this poem reads and flows so beautifully together. I love how you talk about how big and mighty God is and how yes we are in the middle of this all and seeing God's glory and beauty all around us. We will never have enough words to even comprehend how awesome God is the world he made! Overall this poem is wonderful and flows together so well. Keep on writing about God and praising Him through your writing and using your gifts to tell others about Jesus!!
