This time of year brings thoughts of those things I am most grateful for. First and most important to me is the gospel of Jesus Christ, and second…family and friends! When I saw this picture I felt gratitude for my hands! Have you ever thought about all the things your hands can do and how difficult it would be to live without them.

There is so many things our hands can do. They lift, pull, push, carry, grasp, play, work, help and serve. We all need those helping hands at times but we also have many opportunities to use our hands to help others.

Serving others can be so fulfilling and uplifting to your soul. Our Father in Heaven needs our helping hands to serve His children. Our Savior Jesus Christ used his hands to bless, serve and heal. In his final hours he allowed his hands to be pierced on the cross for each of us. There is no greater example of helping hands than the life of our Savior Jesus Christ!

Look for opportunities to serve and help others!
