Proverbs 28

“Those who work their land will have abundant food, but those who chase fantasies will have their fill of poverty.” (Provebs 28:19)

Father, may I till and dig up the land of my being that I might bear an abundant crop in my life.  May this crop by yours; producing the fruit you desire in my life.  May the land in my life be willing to give of itself to feed and nourish the crop; removing the stones and other hinderances that prevent the crop from flourishing.  I need to always be open to your working in my life, not being incalcitrant to the prompting of your instruction for me.

Imposing my own will and desires on your leanings; standing firm in my own conviction and not learning from your instrcution will gain me nothing.  I need to listen, hear, and act on your working in my life.

Father, help me to better know and undertsnad your action and presence in my life.  May I be ever receptive to the tilling and planting of your crops in my life.  May I remain ever focused on you and your workings, not my own fabrications or justification for the things I desire.
