Even for the Ups, bow down in prayer

The day before Palm Sunday Jesus healed a blind man. His instruction to the man, "Receive your sight; your faith has healed you." That night we know that surely Jesus had to pray. Verse one of Luke 18 says that " Then Jesus told them a parable about their need to pray always and not to lose heart."

Even on days when we know we will be "up," we should bow down in prayer, asking not to lose heart and for the vision to see the up for what it truly is and what it can truly be. And for who we should truly be.
