What's in that Bag?
Hey, did it ever occur to you that you might be doing it all
wrong? Okay, I’ll correct that, maybe it’s only me that is mistaken.
But as a person strolls along the pathway of
life it’s pretty easy to collect a lot of burdens. And I don’t mean your own
troubles, either, but other people’s woes. Okay, we think we’re carrying them
because we care, and we think we’re transforming them through prayer, but are
we really?
Are we really? I've been thinking
about a grain of mustard seed a lot lately. That’s a pretty tiny seed you know,
but a whole lot lighter burden to carry than the weight of what we call the ‘whole
world’. I think a lot of you know what I am getting at. Jesus talks of having faith
like a grain of mustard seed. So I got this idea of scattering faith seeds on
the wings of prayer. I have far too many people on my prayer list to prevail in
prayer for each of them individually as often as I’d like but maybe, just maybe
those seeds of faith that we toss in a moment of thought will take root in
someone else’s heart. Who knows a quick prayer might do more good than we dare
hope.
But don’t forget those divine promptings to prevail in
prayer, either. They’re supremely important also.
P.S. I just dropped a quick prayer seed in your heart. Did
you notice?
