Delivered on our Lord's Day, 14 June 2020, at North Baptist Church, Pietermaritzburg, South Africa. 

How many times have we looked toward God, even had the boldness to ask for something, but then just as quickly turned our gaze away? How many of us are like the lame beggar in Acts 3? The Lord does not always give as we ask, but when He gives and what He gives is better. The lame man asks for money and gets life. But he had to take a hold of the outstretched hand of his giver in order to fully walk in the blessing being given.
