He has the whole world in his hands...

I work with disabled adults in my community and my current client I take once week to sung to Sr citizens at a rest home. And we sang "He had the whole world in his hands" and I sang this song many times as a child growing up in church, but God spoke to me through this simple song. And what a nice reminder as well that our faith or the way he speaks to us can be calm and simple and still have a big impact!

But what the Lord showed me during the the verse "had you and me in his hands" is that he does hold us each day, we are in his thoughts and he has our life close. He has you and you positive moments as well as your sad, mad, disappointed ect... moments in his hands and like the carpenter he was on earth he works with his hands and he is doing a work in your life and he is sanding down the sharp corners and reinforcing your weak points to show off his strong points and that he makes all lives beautiful. A table might not always look beautiful when it's being made but it's with the carpenter's skills and caring for his craft he turns plain old wood into something beautiful to be enjoyed by all who see it. Just as God does with us. He holds you in his hand because he is taking your old life and self and making you something beautiful!
