Children | Hands | Humility

“Lord… wash not only my feet but also my hands…” (John 13:9).

In one of the “Charlie Brown” cartoon strips, Charlie Brown holds up his hands before his friend, Lucy, and says, “These are hands that someday may accomplish great things. These are hands which may someday do marvelous works! They may build mighty bridges, or heal the sick, or hit home runs, or write soul-stirring novels!
