SS Thoughts: What's In Your Hand?

(A serious question - my challenge to the Sabbath School today 01/03/2015 - illustrated with relevant props)

In my hand a basketball is worth about $25            

           In Lebron James’ hand it is probably worth $25,000,000

In my hand a football is maybe worth $50                 

            In the hands of Peyton Manning it could be worth $50,000,000

In my hand a stick is just a stick                                           

            In Moses’ hand it could part the Red Sea and lead the Israelites out of bondage and toward the Promised Land.

In my hands a slingshot is a toy                          

            In David’s hands it could kill Goliath and thereby defeat a whole army of Philistines

In my hands a hammer and nails could hang a picture                    

            In Jesus’ hands they could give eternal life.

                       

What’s in your hand? God has given you gifts. Won’t you use them for Him? Do not let Him have to raise up stones to do what He has asked us to do.
