My Devotional Journal: Today’s Our Daily Bread from Elisa Morgan …  USE THIS LINK   … being an author of these ODB devotionals; became stuck while writing one of the entries.  Finally, she remembered some research that showed that getting up and walking sometimes helps the mind to break free from “writer’s block,” and when Elisa Morgan got out on her normal walking trail, praying as she walked, her thoughts broke loose, allowing her to finish the ODB entry.

And the ODB entry for today focused on God’s word (see the Scriptures above), teaching all Christians that we need to persist in prayer when we feel “blocked” in our pursuit of God’s will or His ways.   I don’t know about my readers here today; but I do know that, when I come up against the walls of life, my Lord calls out, thru His word, as Matthew West sings in the linked song, to “KEEP ON PRAYING!”  And so that’s exactly what I’m going to do right now!   Will you join me?

My Thanksgiving: … Oh, King Jesus, thank You …Lord, … for calling me to keep on praying to You. 

My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, … thank You, Lord, for showing us all to keep on praying, no matter what we come up against in life. … Amen
