Daddy Lap ~ Morning Prayer

2/11/10
Oh Abba, dear Abba, Let me climb up in your daddy lap and cry awhile. The heart of Daddy protects and provides. That’s what I need today. For you well know the enemy of my soul seeks to sift and destroy. But, You, Daddy ~ You are on guard. You wall me in. Your hand upon my head is both my father and my mother. The maternal hand smoothes furrowed brow and whispers words in dulcet tones while Daddy’s arms are strong and gentle. So safe is Daddy’s lap for daughter.
I am yours. You are mine.
Now in His Name who fixed my way to Father, Amen.

  5. Oh how many times I have had to crawl up on my Father's lap and weep and wail in pain. I feel safe and protected and loved as I allowed Him to soothe my soul. That's the way to do it, Melanie. Do not give in to the one who seeks to destroy and deceive. God bless you..love, ginny

  6. Hide out with Him. He is your strength and song. Jesus Calling said that about strength and song a couple of days ago. I keep thinking about it. Love, B

  8. Do you feel His arms around you, Melanie? Let Him cradle you--rock you a while. Rest there. Life will wait a little while.

    I wonder if God lets your boy eavesdrop in on your prayers...
