Psalms 22:16 they pierced my hands and feet. A little further down it mentions lots being cast for David’s belongings. He was using a metaphor and people will try and explain what was on his mind or why this was so close to what Jesus went through.
David wrote often on the hands of God and the peace of being safe in His hands. This
Always reminds me of newborn kittens. When a kitten is first born it is so tiny it truly fits right in the palm of your hand. Too often living on a farm have we seen Barn cats abandon their kittens and will be out there trying to take care of them. They’re so tiny and trusting and they will snuggle down right in the palm of your hand and go to sleep because they know somehow they know they are safe there. So often I would sit for hours in our barn with my dog wandering around sniffing out different cat residences, he’s very friendly with cats, and I would sit there and I’d be holding a sleeping kitten. That’s us with Jesus we’re tiny and delicate like a newborn kitten lying safe within his hands. It reminds me of the song He’s got the whole world in His hands. Petra did a newer version where they said, He’s STILL got the whole world in His hands. We forget those songs from kid’s camp, those songs that told us so much about God’s character. He’s still got the whole world in His hands. In those hands that we pierced.
