Upward - At Noon

Listen from:
HOW ARE the hands of your clock pointing at noon? “Up,” you say. That’s right, “Upward at noon!”
I wonder, do you ever think of lifting up your heart to God in prayer at noon? Don’t you think the upward pointing hands of the clock are a good reminder? The lifting up of hands is connected with praying in the Bible. David said, “At noon will I pray.” It is written of Daniel that “he kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God.” Daniel 6:1010Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house; and his windows being open in his chamber toward Jerusalem, he kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime. (Daniel 6:10). Let us follow David and Daniel’s example.
God is so good that He will hear
Whenever children pray;
He always bends a listening ear
To what they have to say.
