Ecclesiastes 5:2 Be not rash with thy mouth, and let not thine heart be hasty to utter any thing before God: for God is in heaven, and thou upon earth: therefore let thy words be few.
I’m sooo-o very thankful that my prayers do not have to be fanciful, eloquent words because (honostly) I just don’t have the brain-power…especially when my heart is heavy. Although I know that while my prayers do need to be persistent, I am very grateful my words do not have to be refined.
I’m thankful to know that I can lay at His feet. And, I’m also very thankful to know God knows my heart and the very groanings of it (which can not be formulated into words). I’m thankful for that! I’m thankful that He understands the interceding of the Spirit mingling with my spirit as I petition Him and seek after Him. I’m glad He has no confusion with that, because I'm confused enough for both of us (if He were apt to be that way, and all)! He understands it all. And, in His own good time, He will answer. The answer may not always be what I want, but He knows best.
It is a faith walk. When we realize that God knows (really knows) what’s best for our life then we are more apt to not be hasty in what we promise Him or petition Him for.
