Matthew 7:7-1
7 “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. 9 “Which of you, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? 10 Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? 11 If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him! - Matthew 7:7-1
Dear Jesus,
I wish I could take back all the days I spent fretting over my problems and challenges. All the while our heavenly father was with me and willing to help. I thought I was mostly on my own. I wasn't. I was in his home and heart all along. I am going to commit these words to memory and strive to practice them by praying to him about everything. You have earned me the right to speak to him as frankly as you do. I trust that grace and will make good use of it from this day forward. Give me the transparency to show the peace this brings to all those who know me as well.
Amen
