Today is Monday, July 26th, 2010; Karen's Korner #1871

My sister, Jan, is a garage sale fan. One of her favorite purchases is buying daily devotional books, short thought books, or Chicken Soup for the Soul books; books which she can pick up, read a few entries, and lay aside.
 
Recently she handed me a copy of "Daily Guideposts 1985: Spirit Lifting Thoughts for Every Day of the Year". Jan had marked one that had caught her eye. "This one would make a good Karen's Korner," she said.

"I will hear what God the Lord will speak....."
~ Psalm 85:8
 
"Sometimes I have many things to talk to God about and my prayers become very long. At other times, I don't want to speak at all. I only want to sit quietly, think about Him, listen to Him, and love Him.
 
"At times like that, I know of no prayer better than one of a little boy whose mother asked him what he prayed for.
 
"'I just told God I was here if He needed me,' the boy answered."
 
"Father, I am here. Amen."
