“So Jehoiachin changed from his prison garments, and he ate bread regularly before the king all the days of his life.” 2 Kings 25:29
“And as for his provisions, there was a regular ration given him by the king, a portion for each day, all the days of his life.” 2 Kings 25:30
Jehoiachin was blinded and locked away, but not forgotten forever.
Lord, thank You for bringing out the imprisoned and letting us sit at Your table for the rest of our days. And here’s a simple poem . . .
My Portion
What more could I ask
than to be at the table with You
cared for by Your presence 
included in what You do
my needs being met
each and everyday
never going hungry
fed by You always.

Thank you, Deb
We are blessed more than we imagine 🙂
Thankful

“We are blessed!”
Dearest Deb – If only we were only content with so much!
Instead, we (I) focus on asking for so little – desires of the moment. Included in His presence – Amazing Grace!
Every need met, even the needs I don’t realize I have.
Who could ask for anything more?
Beautiful, my friend.
Debbie
“Cared for by Your presence” – beautifully said.. HE is more than enough to satisfy 🙂
Excellent! Post and song I love Fred Hammond….He is our portion
“…cared for by Your presence
included in what You do…”
We hear that God works in mysterious ways so often that we come to believe it is true, but it is not. God works in relationship with each us and tells us as much as we can bear (John 16:12). We just need to grow more to be told me.
Awesome poem, my friend.
And thank the Lord for NEVER forgetting His people! Wonderful posting!
What a picture! I shall sit at the kings table!
Oh Sis, this one is exquisite–simple and gracious, and glowing with His glorious Presence. I think it’s my new favorite–beautifully done!!! God bless you so abundantly today, and always. love, sis Caddo
God bless you, much blessed Ann full of grace and song! Your comments make me smile and rejoice. Love and prayers for His provision to cover you today!
Gracious one . . .you always hit on something that I need to hear. I do that too, asking for so little. Thank you!!! God bless you as He includes you each and every day! love and prayers!
God bless you, GodGirl, much loved and cared for by your Jesus! Praying your day is sweet with Him!
God bless you, dear Desiray, as you praise and worship Him today! Loving all that He is doing in your life!
Oops. Should have read:…”to grow more to be told more.”
I gotcha! Thank you Larry for clearing up that mysterious verse, that it doesn’t mean that is the only way He works. I’m going with growing more to be told more, 🙂 God bless you and your relationship with Him!
Yes, Rob! I love that too, that He never forgets! God bless you as you sit with Him today!
Yes, you will and already are! 🙂 God bless you and all that He is supplying you today!
You are just the sweetest , Sis Caddo Delight! So thankful for you and for all He is including you in! God bless you and love on you today!
He alone satisfies and I run to Him ….
we shall eat with HIm forever!
Your comment was like a poem, sweet fisherlady! God bless you as He fills you up today! love and prayers!
>> “cared for by Your presence”
This is one of the greatest blessings of being a child of the living God, and one we cherish at all times, but it has been “more true” (I know, nothing can be ‘more’ true, but you know what I mean) this week.
My husband had a minor heart attack on Sunday. We were sitting in Church (and we always sit near the front) when he more or less collapsed. He was still sitting, chin on chest, as though asleep, but his colour completely drained. He was swearing profusely and yet his skin was icy cold and he was more unconscious than conscious. He didn’t know us. The ambulance arrived and paramedics treated him there in Church, during the sermon.
It must have been very distracting, b ut it couldn’t have happened at a better place. Not only were there people to help, including two nursing sisters, but there was immediate prayer.
He responded well to treatment. He spent a day in intensive care and a couple of days on the ward, and is now back to ‘normal’. He will have a Pacemaker implanted soon.
We were certainly “cared for by His presence”
What a truly awesome Father God!
Oh Mentor Angela . . I read this and had to go pray and thank Him for you being in His presence and being cared for. I will keep your hubby in my prayers, as a pacemaker is implanted . . and will pray for you too, dear one, as you care for him. That will be a service that no one forgets soon.
God bless you and yours, as He stays with you always, and tenderly cares for you each day. love and prayers!
Thank you Deb. I appreciate you. Myles is doing well now his medication has been adjusted. The date for the Pacemaker implant has been set for 20th April.
