Help Wanted
Manage episode 307519603 series 2333390
Humans have a problem asking for help. We can probably chalk it up to our proud hearts.
Often, when we are really up against it, that’s when we resist seeking help.
Jesus does away with all that.
Matthew 7:7, “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.”
Ask yourself: is my pride keeping me from asking for help? If so, mull that over. And then, take a step toward the Lord and ask for what you need.
God opens doors when we ask Him to. And sometimes what we find on the other side isn’t what we expected. When that happens, we choose patience, and we remain open to His good plans for us.
When you’ve asked God to help and your prayers are answered, share the Good News with people you meet. Tell anyone who will listen that the Lord of the Universe cared about you and delivered you from a problem no one else could solve.
And if the answer He gave was totally unexpected and sent you in a different direction — share that, too. Accepting God’s plan when it doesn’t match up with our own best-laid plans is what faith is all about.
Let’s pray. Lord, please give us a heart that seeks you. God, we want to be obedient, and we know that your blessings, whatever they look like, will follow. Thank you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
