I learned the value of the eighth and ninth commandment very early in my life!... and not in a biblical setting!... too young to put a time on it!... my mom would leave her purse unsecured on a table nearby!...my local recreation time!... would desire a snack of the day!... or a soda!...some of us called them cold drinks or pops!...at a very frequent routine I would ease only enough to attain resources for a small amount!... at some point during my routine I was questioned!... have you “little chucky” been in my purse!...with the look of caught in the act!... the look of amazement!... I shook my head!... and said no!... there was no challenges accepted by my response!... I can feel the pains of that moment!... at this current day!... because when Mama was finished with me!... she passed me to Daddy!... Never Again!... let’s pray!...
God my Most High God!... I come with joy and happiness for the peek of a new day!... never seen before!... U Lord God!... made it possible for me to rise among the living and peek at the morning sun!... for U wrapped yur loving arms around me while I slept with the troubles of my midnight!... I was U Lord God!... that held me close and told me everything will be alright!... for there is joy in my morning light!...U Lord Jesus!... I will have my highest praise on display!... for today!... giving thanks for the grace!... and mercy extended over my purposed path!... my leaps of joy!... my claps of celebrations!... all for the blessings bestowed over my day!... giving U honor!... giving U praise!... every step of the way!... U made a way!... U made a way out of no way!... even when the doctor said no!... sadness and sorrow have no room!... while on my way to do what U will me to do!... U’re good!... and a merciful God!... so worthy of praise!... if there’s a stop!... open the way!... if there’s a door closed!... open it!... for I walk with U today Lord Jesus!... every way and turn will have yur blessing over it!... when I tire!... let me rest on my bed of ease!... and drink from fountains of praise!... eat from my gardens of plenty!...along with the fruit of yur sweet holy spirit!... I praise U!... I honor U!... I love U!... not for what U have done in my life!... or what U are about to do in my life!... but for who U are!...
If you been through!... what I’ve been through!... you would be praising Him too!...
To the only God our Savior be glory!... U’re majesty!... U’re powerful with all authority!... through Christ Jesus our Lord!... before all ages!... now and forevermore!... in the sweet name of our Savior Jesus Christ!...
Amen
