Now let us have a little talk with Jesus.
Let us tell Him all about our troubles.
He will hear our faintest cry,
And He will answer by and by.
Now when you feel a little pray wheel turning,
And you know a little fire is burning,
You will find a little talk with Jesus makes it right.
( the chorus for the song Just a Little Talk With Jesus. )
How very true this is. So very much can be accomplished in our time of prayer with the Lord.
When things are going wrong, when plagued with dout and fear, when troubled and down trodden, just take it all to the Lord in prayer. And He will give you peace and rest of spirit. And He will make it all right.
Sweet Hour Of Prayer
Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer,
That calls me from a world of care,
And bids me at my Father's throne
Make all my wants and wishes know;
In seasons of distress and grief,
My soul has often found relief,
And oft' escaped the tempter's snare,
By thy return, sweet hour of prayer.
Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer,
Thy wings shall my petition bear,
To Him whose truth and faithfulness,
Engage the waiting soul to bless;
And since He bids me seek His face,
Believe His word and trust His grace,
I'll cast on Him my every care,
And wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer.
( the first 2 lines of the song Sweet Hour of Prayer by W.W. Walford )
I love both of those songs because of how very true they are.
And how I love and cherish my prayer time with the Lord.
When I pray ( though I am more often praying laying stretched out contently in my bed than down on my knees) I feel I like am literally kneeling at the feet of Jesus. Kneeling there at His feet pouring out my day to Him, my concerns, my thoughts, my struggles, my desires. I pray for my children, my husband, my family, my friends, my sponsored children, ect, ect....
That time of my nightly prayers when I climb into bed at night after a long day is so special to me. As I pray and talk with Jesus I fall into a contented slumber, filled with peace and sweet contentment. Of course sometimes sleep claims me before I have prayed very long, but then I continue my talk again with the Lord when I am awake with my baby during the night, and when I arise in the morning.
Of course we can pray throughout the day too as we do our duties, but having that special undisturbed prayer time is so special and meaningful to me.
May you too find that special sweet hour of prayer with the Lord.
He will rejuvenate you, give you a light heart, and give you the strength and energy you need to keep on going!!
"You will find a little talk with Jesus makes it all right!"
In Him,
