And MY arms are stretched out still....

I was asked to take this picture for my SIL for her sterling scholar portfolio. When I was editing it, I had a thought and I just started crying. This picture reminds me of a scripture. I can't remember where because there are so many of them that mention a particular phrase. But the phrase that came to mind is, "My arms are stretched out still." The scripture talks about God having his arms ready to encircle us and all we have to do is reach out to him and his arms will reach us. Or something close to that. I am so grateful to have a Father in Heaven who is concious of me and my problems and that comforts me more than anything to know that He is always there for me. I thought this picture illustrated this particular thing quite well. Even though it is a woman's hands, it still evokes those feelings for me.
Leave me a shout out and let me know your thoughts on the picture.

Love this kid!!
