On bended knee

It never ceases to amaze me how God answers my prayers. For years as a young girl i prayed for my husband to be, there is a song by Rebecca St James entitled 'Wait for me' which encouraged me to wait with hope and pray with certainty for the man who was to be my husband. I prayed that he would be a man of God, with a foundation firmly built on the Bible and prayer, that he would be a man of compassion, a man of love and a man with a passion for the power and word of God. My God answered my prayers and blessed me witha wonderful God crafted man. I am so thankful that God taught me to be faithful in prayer for my husband from a young age and that he was faithful to answer my hearts cry.

You made my heart sing;
The joy within my soul i cannot explain,
A peace within my startled heart;
touched my the Father and now dripping with love

I was afraid but you dared me to dream;
You dared me to get down on my knees and open my heart,
Telling you the secrets of the female spirit;
The ones long forgotten but never lost.

You asked me to pray.
Told me to give it up to you,
let you be the one to determine our future.
At times i pulled too tight on the reins; i tired to do things for myself,
Clearly that didnt work out.

But oh what good counsel you provided me with;
'Get back on your knees' the women said.
'Let God show you how to make your dreams come true.'

All i had to do was give it up to you.
And now you have shown me the power of a woman on bended knee.
