How to Hold

I have held many things in my hands,
and I have lost them all;
but whatever I have placed in God's hands,
that I still possess.
-Martin Luther

Beautiful, beautiful quote. Perfect for putting in the mind first thing in the morning and then ruminating on all day long!

i love this picture, and i love this quote. That piano looks like i wish mine did...if i had one :) I used to, but no more *sigh*. There's just something about playing a piano when you're down that lifts your spirits right back up again.

Blessings,
Jourdan

I had to read that a few times because I love it so much. I wrote it down too. So very very true. God always gives us what we need and what we were meant to have, and takes from us what we will learn most from having taken away. Hope you're doing well:)
I'm having a giveaway if you'd like to check it out:)

Perfect quote! I'm holding a few things myself right now, so burdensome I haven't been blogging much. I am reminded to put them in His hands by your post today. Thanks!
