Under a large and shady oak and over the clover green, spread on a soft and checkered sheet of red and white was seen - carrots and beans and corn on the cob, melons, sandwiches, pink lemonade - wrapped so in nature and beauty around, I closed tight my eyes, and simply prayed -
"Your sunshine brings warmth on these countryside hills, relaxes my muscles and takes away chills. I don't have each 'want' but I have every 'need - so thank you for every miraculous seed. Seeds that are tiny, so simple and crude - yet live by a faith that provides all this food - food from the bushes, the fields, the hive - so thank You for seeds that keep me alive."
Nature seemed lighter, more vivid and bright - when I opened my eyes and thought, "God is alright."
42 '...for I was hungry, and you gave Me nothing to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me nothing to drink; 43 I was a stranger, and you did not invite Me in; naked, and you did not clothe Me; sick, and in prison, and you did not visit Me.'
Every tough decision is always hard to make -
and consequences don't precede the actions that we take.
If consequences had a voice in wisdom's veto power -
decisions would be much improved with every passing hour.
The very best decisions are absent or are rare -
but every great decision is, preceded first in prayer.
"But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly."
Matthew 25:40 (KJV) And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life:
no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also:
and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.
