Matthew 7:7-12 teaches us that God always hears us and always provides for us. How does what we know about God affect what we do in prayer? Trust comes from knowing that God hears us and peace comes from knowing that He provides for our good. Trust and peace combine to let us bring our cares to God and leave them in His hands. This single practice will liberate us to turn our attention from ourselves and onto others. This practice of prayer is essential for us to live the life God wants for us. May the Lord deepen your prayer life, relieve your cares, and liberate you to reach out to others.
