PRAISE! PRAY! PEG!

Saturday Short---5 Words or Less.

"Praise, Pray, and Peg Away." 

5 framed words by the kitchen sink at Ruth Bell Graham's home. 

Anne Graham Lotz reflections told of that in her recent email. It seems even famous godly gals have roller-coaster years. 

Prayers & unanswered prayers.

Days of energy & too tired to hold head up.

Relaxation and STRESS. (emphasis, mine) 

Heart-filling hope and spirit-crushing disappointments. 

So what does AGL, of AnGeL Ministries do in such times? 

She recalls those 5 words for strength as she pegs away!

BLESS YOUR HEART!

Sometimes we need words of comfort. 

Relief for a flagging soul. A drooping heart. A complaining spirit. Cynicism.

Words of comfort are needed so that one may not "grow weary and lose heart."(Galatians 6:9)

My prayer O Lord, for others and self today, "Satisfy us in the  morning with your steadfast love, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days." (Psalm 90:14)

In the South, three words are often used to convey that needed comfort. Not mere words but words that lead to action.

"Bless your heart" wrapped in a hug and a prayer.
