What is the hand of God? What does it do? we know it flung stars into space and created everything that we see and we don’t see. It guides. ‘Thy hand of God Oh has guided Thy flock from age to age.,’ the hymn tells us. The hand has guided through the history of the Bible until the birth of Christ and beyond. Then that same hand was nailed to the cross with gross inhumanity to man. The hand of all creation was pierced and smashed for the sake of the world; the same hand that had been placed on the sick and had made breakfast for the disciples on the shoreline as an act of forgiveness.
The hand of God is still at work today offering comfort, guidance and wisdom. In the final days God with His outstretched hand will welcome us into His presence.
