H.I.S
"I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.
John 15:4-6

The work on these pages are His...and we are His Steward
H I S
I once called these my hands I hold in front of me
I once called these my eyes and looked at whatever I want
I once called these my ears and listen to the worlds prospective
I once called these my feet and went wherever I wanted once I left my mother's house and before I married
I once called this my house, my car, my clothes,
I once called them my children
Everything I thought was mine I called "Mine"
But when I understood, He gave up everything just to make me His
I started with myself.
I gave them back to Him...
and He made me His steward over what I called "mine"
So now, I welcome all that's His to use for His purpose
to do the work He gave to me.
All that I am and all I have is simply
H I S.

Standing on My Knees!
Being on my knees is an express of prayer
a position of reverencing Him there!
It's a physical position I take from time to time
Though there are many times
I am in His car going to the place He's sending me
though it maybe to get groceries for His Body He gave me
I maybe doing chores
Cooking
Mowing a lawn (but that's surely rare to me)
Or enjoying the life He purpose for me
but suddenly
I'm prompted
to pray
by His Spirit
I yield in obedience
I have no idea sometimes
who's in need of that
right then...
but I've learned
if I let Him lead my life
I might just be used by Him
and found
Standing on my knees.
