PS...

When you pray, do you sometimes add a PS at the end? More often than not?

Pastor Cherry brought this up during his sermon last week. So, I’ve been thinking, what on earth could I possibly ask God for in a PS. If I have taken the time to say a sincere prayer from my heart, what’s left for the PS? Well, I took inventory and made a list of what I have, so I could figure out what it is that I need!

I have…
Land Í don’t use
Cars I don’t drive
Rooms I don’t sleep in
Furniture I don’t sit on
Food I don’t eat
Money I don’t spend
Clothes I don’t wear

And there’s more...
Horses I don't ride
Lawn mowers I don’t want
Tools I don’t need
Sheds full of stuff
Drawers with forgotten items
Cabinets with crazy gadgets

...and the list goes on and on! What on earth could I possibly need? Nothing! Oh, I’m human, so there are things I "want"…but nothing I “need”.

OK, maybe there is something I need...I "NEED" to spend more time in prayer…thanking the Lord for what he has given me, for what I have...starting with my salvation through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. If I continue to take inventory of all he has done for me, maybe I can do away with my PS.

To repeat a phrase Pastor Cherry used last week…

It’s not about what God can do for us...

but, what God has done for us!
