Subject: [RecipesAndMore] Lord, Prop Us Up]
LORD, PROP US UP
Every time I am asked to pray, I think of the old deacon who always
prayed, "Lord, prop us up on our leanin' side."
After hearing him pray that prayer many times, someone asked him why he
prayed that prayer so fervently.
He answered, "Well sir, you see, it's like this....I got an old barn out
back. It's been there a long time, it's withstood a lot of weather, it's
gone through a lot of storms, and it's stood for many years. It's still
standing, but one day I noticed it was leaning to one side a bit. So I
went and got some pine poles and propped it up on its leaning side so it
wouldn't fall.
Then I got to thinking 'bout that and how much I was like that old barn.
I've been around a long time, I've withstood a lot of life's storms,
I've withstood a lot of bad weather in life, I've withstood a lot of
hard times, and I'm still standing too. But I find myself leaning to one
side from time to time, so I like to ask the Lord to prop us up on our
leaning side, 'cause I figure a lot of us get to leaning, at times."
Sometime we get to leaning toward anger, leaning toward bitterness,
leaning toward hatred, leaning toward cussing, leaning toward a lot of
things that we shouldn't, so we need to pray, "Lord, prop us up on our
leaning side," so we will stand straight and tall again, to glorify the
Lord.
"To the
world, you might be just one person, but to one person, you might be the
world"
