Today's Verse - Matthew 7:7-8 (KJV)

Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

—Matthew 7:7-8 (KJV)

Thoughts on Today's Verse...​

Ask! So often we're afraid to ask for help because we have to admit we don't have the answers. Seek! Effort and interest and perseverance are necessary and that's sometimes hard. Knock! In an era of doorbells, this is a forgotten action. But God wants us to use the A.S.K. principle and bring our hearts before him. So let's don't just whine, complain, desire, and want. Let's A.S.K. our Father and seek his glory.

My Prayer...​

Waiting Father, I am sorry that so often you only hear my whines and complaints and concerns. You have been so generous with your love. Help me to keep my heart set on you and your will today as I ask you to minister to the things on my heart. Through Jesus I pray. Amen.

[Anterberg]

Jesus, full of kindness and goodness to all of us keep telling to ask and ye shall receive. I asked for good health and He gave me long life so far. I asked for mercy and compassion, He filled my heart with joy and peace. I love Him with all of my heart today and will forever. Amen
