The Hand Series
Introduction
Why the hand? it's a good question. When the first article emerged, it wasn't an intentional thing to create a series or a theme. At least I had not intentionally set out that way.
Digging deeper however, I remember in the congregation or denomination I grew up in as a new Christin, I heard a prayer that would stick with me for many years, even till now – it is something along the lines of ‘God, I seek your face and not your hand’.
This prayer was positioned as superior. I’m by no means saying that it is or that it isn’t, rather my understanding and interpretation of it suggests that seeking God's face is a better place to be or a better thing to be seeking after than to seek his hand, which is to only want what he can give. Because of that, I had not really focused on the hand of God.
Recently, I’ve been reflecting on the hand that holds me, me personally, in my day to day, in my walk of faith, in my journey of life. This led me to thinking about the Hand of God.
I have walked through difficult seasons without the benefit of a mother's gentle touch or a father's hug. For a long time.
I simply started to see God not just as my heavenly father that is high, lofty, powerful awe-inspiring, but also a God that is dearly close to me, he closes the proximity, comes close to me and hugs me – pours out so much love that I feel hugged and ultimately held.
That’s how the hand series emerged.
As a child of God, I need to see all of God and explore all that he has to offer, not that I have come anywhere close. However, the excitement, the joy of getting a clearer glimpse of an aspect that I hadn’t seen before:
What does a God who fathers the fatherless look like up close?
What does that look like in my reality, my day to day, my work, my mindset and in how I interpret the world.
I hope that it does bless someone as it is blessing me, I hope that the series encourages someone. I also hope that it challenges someone to look at God from a lens they hadn't looked at God before.

The Hand Series - Catch Me
This morning, I woke up with a thought resting gently on my heart.
My children play a game they call Catch Me. I’m not sure it exists as that name in other families, but that’s what they named it. One child stands in front of the other, back turned, and simply falls, trusting that the person behind them will catch them. The sheer amount of laughter garnered during this game tells me there is no fear attached.
I don't like this game. It is hard to watch; I hold my breath in the hope that we don’t end up in emergency care all in the name of fun. But they love it.
Even when they let each other fall almost to the ground before catching them, they still keep playing. And as they've grown older, I've noticed something: my eldest plays less. Maybe because life teaches us caution. Maybe because trust and playfulness slowly give way to realism. It could well be because teenagers are not easy to predict or because he’s having to do all the catching being so tall. The realisation of him no longer playing came to me only now – I hadn’t really given it much thought – simply grateful to reduce the risk of accidents.
And this morning, I wondered: when was the last time I played ‘Catch Me’ with God?
Not the careful, considered version of trust where I release a little and watch to see what happens before I release a little more. The real version. Back turned. Eyes forward. Falling.
Scripture says:
trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him.
Trusting with all your heart means letting go without turning around first. It means falling before the hand reaches you, knowing it will.
When was the last time I released myself fully, without checking first whether He would catch me?
I know this: in the seasons where I have truly let go, for example, when as a newly married wife, I got the medical diagnosis of endometriosis so severe that it threatened my ability to conceive, I simply handed all control over, and maybe because it was so big, I had no iota of worry – I simply relaxed into His will. And God most certainly caught me
I could not have planned my way to where I am. The diagnosis said one thing. God said another. And because the thing was so much larger than my ability to manage it, I simply let go. Not heroically. Just necessarily.
And He caught me.
And carried me.
And gave me three children I was told I might never have.
So when I ask myself when was the last time I truly played Catch Me with God, I already know the answer. I know what it felt like. I know what it cost to fall. And I know what it means to be caught by hands that do not miss.
The question is whether I am willing to fall again. Perhaps that is what trust without fear looks like in a body. Not courage summoned. Just hands that opened because they had to. And a God who was already there.
