Prayer Thoughts for the Heart

Eve took a bite of an apple, the fruit that God had told her not to eat and when she did this, she ate us out of home and garden. However, Jesus Christ came and now we can look forward to a new heavenly home and garden waiting for us.

Life on earth can be like an onion. We have to peel off a bad attitude, unhealthy pride, and selfishness. Doing this will be hard to do and will take time and much effort. It may even cause a little crying. Life will sometimes hand us a lemon. Things that will turn sour and we will get bitter and want to give up. But don’t give up, pray for help. His help can turn our bad days into better ones and we can sip on lemon aide and relax.

Is your life a bowl of cherries? As we all know, we will find a few bad cherries in our bowl and most likely lots of pits. This is life, but we can take the good cherries and bake ourselves a delicious cherry pie and serve it with lots of whipped cream. Have fun and share it with all your family, friends and neighbors.

Rejoice in what we have or can have. Roll with the punches. Things never stay the same, so serve the Lord with gladness and know that happiness in this life is not a guarantee. However, we can have JOY, because the JOY of the Lord is our strength
