Handholding is not a new concept; I’m glad that it will never go out of style…
Daddy: “Take my hand; we’re going to cross the street.”
Daddy: “Take my hand; I’ll walk you to school.”
Young Admirer: “Take my hand, I’ll walk you home.”
First Steady: “Can I hold your hand?”
Fiancé to Girl’s Father: “I’m asking permission for your daughter’s hand in marriage.”
Pastor to Bride and Groom: “Please hold hands.”
Husband to Wife during child labor: “Squeeze my hand.”
Lifelong mate to his Beloved as she faces death: “I won’t leave you; hold my hand.”
Heavenly Father: “Child, take my hand.”
Godly Woman: “I see the Lord!”
“Nevertheless I am continually with thee: thou hast holden me by my right hand. Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel; and afterward receive me to glory. Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee. My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion forever (Psalms 73:23-26 KJV).”
