Asking BIG, seeking relentlessly, and knocking hard.

 “When I learn your righteous laws, I will thank you by living as I should.”  Psalm 119:7

Awe, the joy of waiting upon the Lord! He truly makes all things worth the wait. Though waiting is EXTREMELY difficult, the reward is GREAT.

There is a reason Jesus tells us to keep seeking Him, to keep praying, and to keep on believing during the wait.

“Keep on asking, and you will be given what you ask for. Keep on looking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened. For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks, finds. And the door is opened to everyone who knocks.” Matthew 7:7-8

Because when we do we will be given what we ask for (which will be according to His will and will be given in a way far better than how we ever imagined it.) we will FIND what we are looking for, and the door will be opened, a wonderful, awesome, and amazing door.

One of my dearest friends kept on asking, kept on looking, kept on knocking, and kept on believing and after 10 years of doing so this was how our amazing God answered.


That sweet thing is worth it, don’t you think?  I love her, and I love her mama and her mama’s faith! That sweet girl was ten years in the making and God has HUGE, GIGANTIC plans for her!

Prayer: Jesus I am asking BIG, knocking hard, seeking relentlessly, and believing with all I am that You will work all things out for our family according to Your will. You know it is our desire to be together. You know the need we have and the situation we are in. We love You and are looking forward to what You have in store for us. We are asking BIG things Jesus. Amen
