Focusing On The Line

Friday, March 15, 2019

Imagine you were in desperate need of a million dollars. Now imagine, your father is a billionaire. What would be the wisest way to spend your energy? Should you spend your time and efforts trying to work your way out of it? Would you spend your energy trying to earn a million dollars? Or would you spend your time and energy calling or reaching out to your dad and telling him of your need? It would be wisest to go with the second option. So it is with us and the Lord. We all deal with problems, wants, needs, and issues. And most people spend most of their energy trying to figure out ways to solve their problems or to get what they want. But if you’re a believer, your Father is more than a billionaire. So instead of putting all that energy in striving to answer your need, put that energy into growing a better prayer life, a stronger devotional life, and a clearer communion with God. For the blessings that come through prayer are worth billions, and they’re waiting for you... as soon as you get on the line.
