Lord prop me up on my leanin side.

You see it is like this...There is an old shed out back. It's been there a long time; it's withstood a lot of weather; it's gone through a lot of storms, and it's stood for many years. It's still standing. But one day I noticed it was leaning to one side a bit. Then I got to thinking about that and how much I was like that old shed. I've been around a long time. I've withstood a lot of life's storms. I've withstood a lot of bad weather in life. But I find myself leaning to one side from time to time, so I like to ask the Lord to prop me up on my leaning side. Sometimes I get to leaning toward anger, leaning toward bitterness, leaning toward a lot of things that I shouldn't. So I pray to stand straight and tall again.

That's a great thought, Mom, and a great picture. You're more profound than you let on. ;)
