Ask

2 1/2 years ago our son Elijah was born and then died 2 hours later. We were told by doctors that this was going to happen. We thought we were prepared. We were wrong. We were surrounded by family and friends which we consider family. We held Elijah and told him how much we loved him. This thru me into a tale spin for the better part of 1 1/2 years. I went thru the motions until I finally gave it all to God. He has our life in His hands and knows what He is doing and I trust that even when I do not understand He still Loves me and does what is best.

We unfortunately had family that never even acknowledged that anything happened. We had a friend that asked another what he could do for us. The response was simple call Shawn and talk to him. What he did instead was send a card. Why ask if you are not going to follow the directions?

How many times I have heard someone ask God for direction and then disregard because that was outside of their comfort zone. God only asks us to leave our commfort zone until we are like Yeshua. So where are you? Are you like Yeshua? He looked for direction from the Father continuously. He prayed early every morning seeking the wisdom of the Father. Yeshua realized early that He had to be about our Fathers business. Luke 2:49 Did you not know that I must be about My Fathers business. He was only 12 and stayed behind in the Temple to study with the leaders.

It is true that if we ask He will answer, if we seek we will find Him, and if we knock He will open the door. If you ask and seek are you ready to walk thru the door that He opens? pray 1 Peter 4:2 That you won't spend the rest of your life chasing after evil desires, but you will be anxious to do the will of God.
