Kneeling Before the Lord

Going up before the church and kneeling at an altar was a problem for me… at first. What would people think? What would they say? They might think I’m sinning again! And this was my attitude till the Lord gave me the following dream:
An altar call had been given at a church and once again I hesitated to go to the front and bow before the congregation, when I felt a presence at my side.
The presence leads me to the back porch of my home. Whether it was an angel or not, I could not tell, but he told me to look up and show him the furthest star I could see. It was a star-filled sky above me and I chose the smallest twinkle of light I could find, at about 11 O’clock high. Pointing in its direction, I showed the “presence” what star I thought to be the furthest away.
Yes, he confirmed my choice, “You have chosen that star that is the farthest from here, but that star is much larger than the earth that you stand upon and yet I hold it, and all the heavens, in the palms of my hands. Now… is there any reason you shouldn’t fall on your knees, even on your face and worship me?” I fell prostrate before Him and worshipped Him.
I knew in my spirit that falling before Him in private or in public was what He referred to … NO LONGER would I hesitate to worship the Lord or ignore His calling to come forward and bow my knees before Him… whether I was alone or in a crowd.
