Have you prayed?

Our Lord made it very clear to the people who first followed Him: they were to ask God to meet their needs. Shouldn’t we? Genuine, heartfelt prayer can produce powerful changes in our lives and world. When we lift up our hearts to God, asking for His wisdom, we open ourselves up to a great source of wisdom and love.

Do you have questions about today? Questions about your future that you can’t answer? Questions about choices or decisions you’ll soon have to make? Needs that you can’t satisfy by yourself? Have you sought God’s wisdom? Have you asked for direction? Protection? Strength? Courage? If you have, do you consistently ask for His wisdom? Our God is perfectly capable of answering your prayers, but first, you have to ask. Find some time today to read James 1:5. Think about it. Put it into practice.
