What Does Our Hand Tells Us



The thumb, being the biggest of our fingers represents God and the index finger represents us – man. Long time ago, man got separated from God’s love because of sin that is why as you can see, our index finger is far away from our thumb.  It shows us how away we are from our God. After the separation, man tried to live a contented life away from God but failed to have it. There is always missing in their lives. What’s missing? Well, obviously, GOD. Man was not created to be away from Him. The purpose of man’s creation was to please God and having been separated from his purpose, man became weary, violent, liar, lonely and incomplete. In order to fill in what’s lacking, man find ways to bring his self back to God. Man go to church, help others, became good with their families, in short, man does good works in order to bring his self back to Him. But it was said, for all have sinned and fall short in the glory of God, no matter what man does, it’s still not enough, he still can’t reach God and it saddens man so much. On the brighter side, God loves His creation so dearly, He can’t take it seeing them waste their lives, so God made a very huge act to save His people. The middle finger, being the tallest of the fingers represents this huge act that God made. What’s this act? It was said, for God so love the world that He gave His only begotten son that those whoever believes in Him will not perish but will have an eternal life. In order to save man, God sent His only begotten son. But with this act comes an offer, a proposal, like a man proposes a woman for marriage and puts a ring on her ring finger, God also gives a proposal to man that whoever believes (just believe) in Him (His son), will not perish but will have an eternal life. And what man could do? Very simple and very small like our tiniest finger, just believe and accept Jesus as his Lord and personal saviour. Just believe and accept Him wholeheartedly and voila, man is saved.
 

Very easy, right? So, after reading this, I’d like you to know that God is proposing to you saying, “I have sent my Son for your salvation, will you accept Him?”.
