Look at your hands
Notice their power and gentleness
Say each of these phrase slowly and richly
Blessed be the works of your hands, O Holy One …
Blessed be these hands that have given and received medicine
Blessed be these hands that have been creative….
Blessed be these hands that have felt pain and tiredness….
Blessed be these hands that have embraced others….
Blessed be these hands that have closed in anger….
Blessed be these hands that have planted new seeds….
Blessed be these hands that have cleaned, washed, mopped, scrubbed….
Blessed be these hands that have thrown a football….
Blessed be these hands that have given what they had
Blessed be these hands that have fed others …
Blessed be these hands that have reached out….
Blessed be these hands that have held the sacraments …
Blessed be these hands that connect us to what has been ….
Blessed be these hands that hold the promise of the future….
Blessed be the works of your hands, O Holy One….
