Being that the Great Creator designed this whole experience of a world in which we live we are witnesses the depth and breadth of what is possible. It is not hard to go through our day and not be amazed or surprised. If we open our eyes to what is present around us we can be blown away by the multiplicity and variety of what exists. Given that, is it not possible that whatever request we have of God is not also possible? We cannot know what will happen with a request that we place before God unless we present it. Many times we determine that God would want or not want something for us–as though we know the mind of God. We cannot know until we ask. It takes courage to share with God what is most closely on our hearts in and in our minds. It takes strength not because God does not already know but because it is one thing to have it inside of us and another to share it. When we make the request we turn it over to God. We say here is what our thoughts are, what do you think? Thy will,not mine be done. Making the request is very important because it calls us to be authentic with our God. My prayer for us today is that we be willing to take the chance that God wants to hear what we want from us and will know what to do with it. Make it a great one! Peace~Colleen
Are you willing to share what is on your heart with God and be open to what God can do with that request? Share in the comments.
