Have you ever hunted and hunted for something, maybe your car keys, and you finally find them? The old saying goes (it’s very unhelpful!) that you find them in the last place you looked. There’s a lot of truth to that, though.

 

It also is very relevant to our walk with Jesus. Often we work really hard to solve our own problems, then we finally give in and ask Jesus for help.

 

Matthew 7:7, “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.”

 

As with every other promise in the Bible, the really cool thing about this is, it is true. The promises Jesus has made are literally true. So, for example, if you’re looking for a solution to an impossible situation, ask Him.

 

It works!

 

Let’s pray. Lord, forgive us for not placing our trust in you all the time. You are our sustainer. We need to remember that. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
