Yes. I’m Asking AGAIN.

I know, I know, you’ve already asked Him a million times, I see those eyes rolling.
But today, ask Him a million and one.

Yes.
Ask Him AGAIN.

Ask Him again for that child to come home.
That marriage to be healed.
That mountain to move.

Ask Him again for that friendship to mend.
That work to begin.
That end-of-tunnel light to appear.

Ask Him again for the one who needs rescue, the one who needs healing, the one who needs new direction, new guidance, new focus.

Yes.
Even if that ‘one’ is you.
Ask Him again for what you need.
For what you want.
For joy in the sorrow.
Help in the struggle.

A sip of living-water in the heat of your schedule...and the time to just sit at the well, amen?

Ask Him again.

Ask Him again to provide springs in your land; and while you’re at it, give thanks for that land, no matter how dry it is now, knowing He’s given it to you with good purpose.

Yes.
Ask Him again.

Ask Him again to dig up the soil and plant the seeds.

Ask Him again to stir up and settle, make and remake, pour out His peace that passes all understanding, because frankly; you could use a hefty dose about now.

Yes.
And Amen.

Ask Him again for all that seems lost and all that seems nowhere even near the city of possible...and ask Him believing He can.

Yes.
Ask Him again.

Not because you don’t think He heard you the first million times, but because you are realizing the longer you {truly} live, that persistence is a pretty strong faith-builder; not to mention how close it keeps you to Him for whom all things are possible and nothing is too hard, and because faith-based strength to persevere and closeness with your Creator is what you REALLY need.

Whew. Yes. Absolutely.
Ask Him again.

With fresh eyes and a renewed spirit and a passionate resolve that He can, and if it’s His Will...He will.

And if it’s not, you will keep on asking.

You will keep on seeking.
You will keep on believing just like Steve Perry says.

Because persistent faith is where it’s at.
It fastens its gaze on hope.

The hope that is always three steps {Father, Son, Holy Spirit} ahead, providing the perfect focal point.

Yes.
And it never disappoints.

Amen.
So today; bow low, look up, and ask Him AGAIN. ❤️

Letting this sink in!

God loves us so intensely that every time we turn to Him after wandering from His love, all heaven breaks out in celebration.

Most of us believe this intellectually. Experiencing this in our hearts, however, requires us to slow down...a lot.

We take for granted an intense level of activity is normal. If a door of opportunity opens for us, we assume walking through it MUST be God’s will.

That is not necessarily true.

Blindly seizing more and more opportunities has destroyed many people stronger than you and me.

Slowing down to pray goes much further.

I see you. You matter.

Our society is really awful at grieving.

We’re always supposed to be productive, positive, and leveraging life for maximum return.

That leaves almost no room for the inevitable sorrows that come with simply being alive.

You probably won’t get an invitation to sit with your emotions, but you don’t need anyone’s permission.

Take your time. Take your space. Heal.

Most days don’t feel like Good Friday or Easter Sunday; they feel like the day of uncertainty in between. Sometimes waiting feels like the hardest part of faith.

This!!!!!! This is who I aim to be!

I admit it. It’s true. But, oh yes, Him in charge is so much better. I’m still learning to let go. In fact, it’s so much more than “ letting go”. It’s more like me pleading with Him to take over! (And yet I stubbornly march back in - SMH)

Prayer is the place to discern the mind of God and receive His power so you can live out our unique purpose in the world.

Walking with Jesus…

A few weeks ago, my family and I were driving to dinner and it was dark and foggy out. And every once and a while the fog would clear and I would say "oh, good, I'm glad it's clear now. " And then the fog would reappear again. And we would go back to not being able to see 10 feet in front of us.

It made think about how life is like that sometimes. Actually, a lot of times.

We don't get to see the next turn in the road. We get 10 feet. And those ten feet can go from straight to crooked real fast.

But lucky for us, this night we were on a familiar road. One we've driven hundreds, if not thousands of times. And can I tell you, it mattered! We anticipated the turns. We'd been there before.

And I couldn't help but to relate it to my walk with Jesus. Because sometimes I can't see more than 10 feet ahead of me. But my life moving forward isn't a road I've been down before. It's all new terrain, every day. I don't have the benefit of having traveled this exact path again. I can't predict every twist and turn.

But I know because of walking with Jesus so many times before, that if I stick close to him, I'm going to make it to my destination. I can anticipate His faithfulness. I can expect His provision. He's never failed. He's always brought me through. And that's how we travel through life, friends. With our hope not resting on a clear path, but in the one who travels with us.

On some days more than others, doesn’t it seem so good that Jesus gives us examples like this?

After He had sent the crowds away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray; and when it was evening, He was there alone. Matthew 14:23

Jesus, Hold my Hand!

Sometimes we forget how deeply loved we are.

Because in all the surviving and struggles.

Our strength and self-worth gets depleted.

But God wants to remind us that we are more than loved.

We are His treasure.

And when the world shuts a door.

He will open one.

And when the world turns its back.

He will draw us to His heart.

You weren’t made to face the hardship alone.

Your hands were made to fit in His.

❤️

“For I am the Lord your God who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you.”
[Isaiah 41:13]
