Whatever our hands touch…

We leave fingerprints!

On walls, on furniture

On doorknobs, dishes, books.

There’s no escape.

As we touch, we leave our identity.

Oh God, wherever I go today

Help me leave heartprints!

Heartprints of compassion

Of understanding and love.

Heartprints of kindness

And genuine concern.

May my heart touch a lonely neighbor

Or a runaway daughter

Or an anxious mother

Or perhaps an aged grandfather.

Lord, send me out today

To leave heartprints.

And if someone should say,

“I felt your touch,”

May that one sense YOUR LOVE

Touching through ME.

– Author Unknown

May you receive all the heartprints you need

to feel happy and loved

and

May you find ways you can add to the heartprints

you leave behind in others.
