Philippians
4:6-7 “Be anxious for
nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let
your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses
all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”
Our
youngest son and his family from Denver, Colorado have been visiting us this
last week. One day, he turned on the TV for our grandson to watch Disney’s 1937
beloved classic movie “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs”. In the scene where the
7 dwarfs give up their beds for the Princess Snow White to sleep, she stops to
say a prayer before turning in for the night. I thought: what a wonderful message
for all the generations of children and their parents that watched this epic
picture of the battle between good and evil, to see and hear that the Lord God
Almighty in Heaven is worshiped, petitioned and praised. What a true blessing and a godly
example for us all.
James
5:16b “The prayer of a
righteous person is powerful and effective.”
Proverbs
15:8b & 29B “The prayer of the
upright is His delight. He hears the prayer of the righteous.”
Romans
12:10-13 “Be kindly
affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to
one another; not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the
Lord; rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in
prayer; distributing to the needs of the saints, given to hospitality.”
In
Christ, Brian

I love that scene!
Yes Karen, I wish that all cartoon and feature-length animation movies had them.
