The Perfect Place to talk about People

Prayer is the perfect place to talk about people!

This morning I am thinking of Nanny (my sweet Grandmother who is now with the Lord) and a simple little song she used to sing that goes like this. "Just go and tell Jesus on me, whatever my weakness may be, if you are my brother don't go tell another, just go and tell Jesus on me."

It's interesting how people will talk about others for whom they are "concerned", and yet have never bothered to pray for them. I think we all know that this approach is due to a desire to gossip rather than to bear one another's burdens.

If I have a problem, which I suspect I do :-) I really need someone to talk to the one who can change it!

Although there are  times when others need to be made aware of the need so that we may agree in prayer, very little is accomplished  in our discussions until it is sincerely brought to the Lord in prayer, the PERFECT place for the discussion!

If you must talk about me, feel free! But, please take it to the perfect one: Jesus Christ, in the perfect place: Prayer!


There may be some very pressing issues in your life right now. May I encourage you to never neglect the perfect place to discuss this issue. "Take it to the Lord in prayer"!

God Bless!
