Today I got the sense of a man's inner thigh which nearly seems indecent! However, a hand on the thigh in ancient biblical times was an indication of a serious promise/oath. Its proximity to the man's sexual organs represents the seriousness of the oath in impacting the lineage of the person giving it, whether it is positively kept or negatively ignored. This leads me on to the lineage we have with our creator Father God. Do we really comprehend the seriousness of God's promises to us, that He is wholly there for us? "If God be for us, who can be against us? (Romans 8:31). Not only can we wait for God to provide for us but let us declare His goodness in whatever situations we are in. It is so easy to say something like "I always get flu in the winter", "There is no point in me expecting to get that job", "It is always bad weather when we go so I am sure it will be again this time", " This is not going to work out". Sometimes it is just a question of not saying anything and at other times saying something more positive like "I don't expect to get flu this winter", "I am going to go to this job interview giving it my best shot", "I hope the weather will be good this time", "God is with me in this situation" etc. Change your attitude and with it change your speech. You have a mighty Father Who keeps His Word.
