A Radical Idea That Could Change Everything
Empty your hands.
This is what Charles Swindoll invites all of us to do. I’ve written about it before.
He explains it, better than I, in this book…
I love how Corrie ten Boom used to put it. She used to say, “Vell, I’ve learned to hold every ting loosely, because it hurts ven God pries my fingers apart and take tem from me.”
An anonymous poet said it this way:
One by one God took them from me,
All the things I valued most,
Till I was empty-handed,
Every glittering toy was lost.And I walked earth’s highways grieving
In my rags and poverty
Till I heard His voice inviting
“Lift those empty hands to Me.”
How could the simple idea of having vacant hands radically change you?
