On My Knees

Greetings dear and precious sisters-in-Christ, Today I am going to be on my knees! I have been wanting to prepare the two flower beds in front of the house but because of freeze warnings and rainy weather have not been able to get out and play in the dirt. Yes, I still like playing in the dirt and when I have unwanted weeds the best way to get them out is on my knees. Pulling weeds for me used to be like dusting and washing windows, they were never top priority for me. So if and when you come visit please do not look at my dust! At least I take care of the dangling webs throughout the corners of the house. So back to pulling weeds - it was several years back that we lived in an area where centipedes and spiders and other creeping things lived in the ground and the trees where I wanted to be. As I prepared to get the task done I would ask the Lord to protect me from the bites of the bugs. And while I was on my knees the conversation would lead to my talking about other things that could harm me and then leading further on and including my family and friends. It isn't a task that needs to be over with quickly but now it is time with the Lord. These days I need to lean into Him more and more, bringing to Him my burdens and concerns not only for myself but for my spouse and children and grandchildren and so many more. Today all of you will be included in my prayers of protection and provision and His Peace to overflow in your being. There is a saying that mama used to use, "if your ears are ringing then someone is talking about you." I will be talking about you and thinking of you as I am on my knees this morning. Let us pray - Abba Father, Praise and Glory and Honor to Your Name, O Lord, I pray for each dear and precious sister-in-Christ - It is written, "Now may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself and God our Father, who has loved us and given us eternal comfort and good hope by grace, comfort and strengthen your hearts in every good work and word." (2 Thess. 2:16-17). And Lord, It is written, "And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus." (Phil.4:7). My dear and precious sisters-in-Christ, may the promises of the Lord continually and constantly and consistently be on your lips and on your mind as you walk through your days. In Jesus Name, Amen. Before Him this morning in prayer,
