August - Traveling on my Knees

“Traveling on My Knees” - Submitted by Mother Pearl Glover

Last night I took a journey to a land across the sea.  
I didn’t go by ship or plane; I traveled on my knees. 
I saw so many people there in bondage to their sin. Jesus told me I should go,
that there were souls to win, but I said “Jesus, I can’t go to lands across the seas”.   
He answered quickly, “Yes you can – by traveling on your knees”.
He said “You pray, I’ll meet the need. You call and I will hear.
It’s up to you to be concerned for lost souls far and near”.
And so, I did, I knelt in prayer, gave up some hours of ease, and with the Savior by my side, I traveled on my knees.
As I prayed – I saw souls saved and twisted persons healed.  
I saw God’s workers’ strength renewed while laboring in the field.  I said, “yes Lord, I’ll take the job, it’s your heart I want to please,
I’ll heed your call and swiftly go by traveling on my knees”.
