I get up every morning and begin my day with prayer. I pray for a lot of things, cancer prayers, dementia prayers, world prayers, government prayers, church prayers, etc.. But I always ask God to watch over my sons, their wives and my grand-kids. I turn my worry over how the future will be for my grand-kids to God. I trust that He hears my prayers and watches over their steps. I pray that they all find Jesus and maintain a moral compass in this world. Right now the way the US is lining up morally is rather disturbing to me. I see biblical prophecies coming to fruition. The Bible said that in the last days what is right will be declared wrong and what is wrong will be declared right. I see men and woman who cannot make up their mind as to what sex they are. I see a government sanctioning abortion even to the extent of killing a child after it has been born. I see hate and division becoming the standard way to settle issues. This makes my anxiety increase, but I still turn over this worry to God and let him have it. I ask for forgiveness of my sins and to forgive our country for the acts that it is authorizing. I pray for the president and all those in charge that they may be directed by God.
One day I pray my grand-kids will read this blog and understand that Cathy and I both pray for them continually. We pray that through all the noise Satan is putting up that they will hear Jesus call.
John Prine has a song with the chorus that goes:
Blow up your TV throw away your paper
Go to the country, build you a home
Plant a little garden, eat a lot of peaches
Try an find Jesus on your own
His final chorus goes:
We blew up our TV threw away our paper
Went to the country, built us a home
Had a lot of children, fed 'em on peaches
They all found Jesus on their own (everyone of them)
I pray that all my kids and grand-kids (and great grand-kids, etc) all find Jesus on their own and hold firm to His teachings.
