Higher! Higher!

Lately when I’m worried about something, I can hear the shouts from the audience on the Price is Right as contestants guess the price of the refrigerator or new car!  “Higher! Higher!”

When I fret about worldly things my mind is stuck in the mud.
I need to think, “Higher!”
I need to lift my head and heart Higher to the Only One who can solve my problems!  With this posture I exalt the King of Kings and humble my weary self trying to take care of everything on my own.  Getting myself out of the way and submitting in prayer clears the way for me to hear the voice – and comfort of God!

Are you a prize winner in prayer?

“I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth.”  Psalm 121:1,2
