Michael David Watson

A much-needed prayer and prophetic psalm the Lord has given me... a cry for the heart of pride, and a plea of surrender. Many of us are fighting to be right, still fighting to be proud - Fighting to be noticed... Fighting to be important... Fighting to be seen... Fighting to be vindicated... Fighting to be respected... God never asked us to fight for these things. Therefore I am grateful to fight to be broken, to fight to lay down... At his feet. To fight to love & and forgive above myself. To fight for humility and to fight to stay low so that only he would stand up in me. To Fight to stay down, ever fighting to be still, and fighting to turn the other cheek. Fighting against myself, fighting against my will, fighting against my own esteem, control, and self-preservation.  Thank you, Lord, for your heavy hand upon me! I would rather lay in humility on the floor of your courts for eternity - than to stand in the heights of the World for a lifetime only.
