I Bow My Knees Before the Father

An elderly man kneels in quiet prayer beside a cushioned chair, his hands clasped and his head bowed over an open place of devotion. A Bible rests nearby with his glasses laid across it, suggesting a moment after reading Scripture when study has become worship. The scene gives visual form to the apostle Paul’s words in Ephesians 3:14: “For this reason I bow my knees before the Father.” The posture is humble and deliberate, emphasizing dependence on God, reverence in private prayer, and the faithful rhythm of Scripture, reflection, and intercession. This artwork serves well for themes of senior faith, personal devotion, prayer ministry, discipleship, and sermons on humility before the Father. by Stan Myers
