“On my knees in my heart.”
was the reply I gave someone when they asked how I was. Battling on my knees in my heart before Him in prayer. Prayer is not an art but a necessity, born out of adversity at times, “in my Desperation I prayed and the LORD listened….”-Psalm 34:6 .{NLT}. Another version says of the same verse, “this poor man cried to The Lord and the Lord listened…” desperation… crying to the One who alone can meet and cares enough, who is big enough to do what we cannot do for ourselves.
This past week I met a 74 year old saint, Jim. He told me he could not kneel because of some physical ailments, but every morning when he awoke he sat on the edge of his bed and prayed for people for an hour. Clicking his fingers repeatedly to demonstrate to speak of rapid fire of…. names, coming to mind and he prayed… at night he did the same thing sitting on his bed for an hour and interceding. Days go by and at times he never sees a soul, alone, but yet not alone, the Unseen One sees Him, Listens to Him and bids him pray on, persevere, on behalf of others for Jesus sake.{See Luke 18:1; Col 4:2, 2 Cor 4:5}
So often a lot of what you may do is unseen by others but not unseen by Him! …Pray on!
