positive hands

Hi today I’m back to thinking about hands since the crisis pandemic hands have become something to be wary of they cause us anxiety, fear and frustration to name but a few. ts good to think also of their positive contribution in our new world we know they have healing properties but we can be fixated with actual touch.it may be possible to touch others in different ways we use our hands to pray and meditate perhaps it is good to reflect on hands from a spiritual dimension? what do you think ? I have felt held by my friends warmth and loving concern yet they can’t visit me but they text ,ring, email. connect wirelessly what useful hands! these are the hands of love they remind me of Christ’s hands we connected through our shared experience of suffering lets use our hands, whether they are small or large,to heal to communicate.
