"For the word of the Lord is right, And
all His work is done in truth. He loves righteousness and justice; the earth is
full of the goodness of the Lord. By the word of the Lord the heavens were
made, And all the host of them by the breath of His mouth." Psalm
33:4-6
Illustration:
The tenor of Scripture is that if we are in tune with the divine
mind, and so are receptive of the secret whispers and suggestions of the Spirit
of God, then that Spirit will first inspire in us the prayers which our
Heavenly Father will consistently answer.
"Every prayer is a transaction
with order. You go home with a packet of seeds for your little girl, and you
take her out, and say: "This little plot shall be yours. Whatever comes of
this packet of seeds shall be yours." Now, what can come of a penny packet
of seeds in all this infinite universe, with stars and systems whirling round?
Beauty can come of it! Life can come of it! Why? Because your little gardener
is transacting with order. She is dealing with law, and law will deal with her,
and out of the seed she sows there shall come beauty to gladden her. When she
kneels an hour or two later, and breathes forth from a pure heart a prayer to
the eternal God for blessing upon herself and you, will you say, "What
good can come of it?" good can come of where law rules, where right is
triumphant. Prayer is not a dip into a lucky bag. It is dealing with eternal
law." author unknown.

Scripture - "The desert and the parched land will be glad; the wilderness will rejoice and blossom. Like the crocus, it will burst into bloom; it will rejoice greatly and shout for joy. The glory of Lebanon will be given to it, the splendor of Carmel and Sharon; they will see the glory of the LORD, the splendor of our God." Isaiah 35 Poetry: The works of God, above, below Within us and around, Are pages in that Book to show How God Himself is found. Thou who hast given me eyes to see And love this sight so fair, Give me a heart to find out Thee And read Thee everywhere. -Keble |
