He's got the whole world in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands.

He's got my brothers and my sisters in His hands,
He's got my brothers and my sisters in His hands,
He's got my brothers and my sisters in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands.

He's got the sun and the rain in His hands,
He's got the moon and the stars in His hands,
He's got the wind and the clouds in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands.

He's got the rivers and the mountains in His hands,
He's got the oceans and the seas in His hands,
He's got you and he's got me in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands.

He's got everybody here in His hands,
He's got everybody there in His hands,
He's got everybody everywhere in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands.


On Thursday, I emailed Pete from Holf to let him know that we were going to Holf today. Pete replied and said that Muyang will have his casts from both legs removed on Friday. We went to Holf today and we joined the singing and performing from Doulos ( a floating book fair manned by Christian volunteers). I saw Muyang and my heart leaped for joy! His casts were really off. Later on, I had a chat with Sue. She told me that Muyang's doctor was so amazed at Muyang's recovery from the surgery that he has decided that Muyang will have his braces! Praise the Lord! I have to say that I misjudged Christian Action. When they wanted to put him in the wheelchair, it was because they thought Muyang will not be able to walk as his doctor told them that from the MRI scans, Muyang's leg muscles were wasted. But on Friday, he was able to raise his leg and the doctor was amazed! Truly praise the Lord. I must confess that I feel guilty that I didn't pray hard enough for Muyang.


While playing lego with Muyang, he started to sing, 'He's Got the Whole World in His Hands.' On the way home, I was a little pensive thinking about God and the song. How apt the song. God has the whole world in his hands. In His hands, He has me, Babe, Muyang and everyone. Why do I worry when God has the whole world is His hands? A couple of months ago, when Babe left his job, there were thoughts in my head about our future. But looking back now, it was stupid and faithless of me to worry. God has the whole world in His hands and He has proved Himself to us once again. He has provided Babe with not just one job but a few jobs and Babe was in a position to choose the one that he wanted. Even after he started his job, calls were still coming in offering him jobs. How uncanny that I've learnt faith from a little boy singing this song.
