tracing
the fingerprints of God
fingers drawing prisms of color dazzling
in rainbows flung across time
raindrops collide with sundrops
showing His promise for all time
each fingerprint a glimpse of His love
fingerprints on every breath
every heartbeat
from before time began
fingers orchestrating the
Composition to be performed in
the symphony of life
conducted by the fingers of the Creator of all
all for His purpose and His glory
we are His masterpiece
His fingers painting every corner of our lives
long before we even realized
His fingers left prints
His fingers shaped us
His love formed us
His heart embraced us
long before we even realized
to Whom the hands belonged
those hands formed each mountain peak
every valley
those hands flung stars into space
spoke life into being
yet
created our very dna
long before time began
the fingers which leave prints
became human fingers
as He allowed His divinity to be dressed in our
humanity
those sweet baby fingers grew into
a man's strong fingers
He left His fingerprints
on all He healed
on all He forgave
on all He loved
those very hands with fingers
leaving fingerprints over your life
and my life
were stretched open
nailed to a cross
for you
for me
because those nail pierced hands defeated death
returned to His Father
we are able to see the fingerprints
as He guides each step ~
as we play our part in the symphony of life
as we look back we see the detours
the side trips
the back tracking
that His gift of freewill allows
yet even when running in the
opposite direction
HIS FINGERPRINTS COVER ALL
patiently in boundless love He waits
as often our human hands wrestle with
His divine hands
His fingerprints even on the
wrestling match
in boundless love He calls each by name
"...I say this because I know what I am planning for you...
I have good plans for you not plans to harm you
I will give you hope and a future
then you will call My name
you will come to Me and pray to Me
and I will listen to you
you will search for Me and when you search
with all your heart
you will find Me..."
Jeremiah 29:11-13
