| Dec.07.01: Light For The Day - "The Difference" One who takes time for prayer Will find time for other things. -------- -- Colossians 4:2 (RSV) "Continue earnestly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving." -------- "The Difference" I got up early on morning and rushed right into the day; I had so much to accomplish that I didn't have time to pray. Problems just tumbled about me, and heavier came each task. "Why desn't God help me?" I wondered. He answered, "you didn't ask." I wanted to see joy and beauty. but the day toiled on, gray and bleak; I wondered why God dindn't show me. He said, "But you didn't seek." I tried to come into God's presense; I used all my keys at the lock. God gently and lovingly chided, "My child you didn't knock." I woke up earrlly this morning, and pause before entering the day; I had so much to accomplish that I had to take time to pray. -- Unknown. ----------------- -- Matthew 7:7 (RSV) "Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you." -- Jeremiah 29:13 (NIV) "You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart." |
