Asking & receiving

"Ask and it shall be given you" (Matt. 7:7).

We must receive, as well as ask. We must take the place of believing, and recognize ourselves as in it. A friend was saying, "I want to get into the will of God," and this was the answer: "Will you step into the will of God? And now, are you in the will of God?" The question aroused a thought that had not come before.

The gentleman saw that he had been straining after, but not receiving the blessing he sought.

Jesus has said, "Ask and ye shall receive." The very strain keeps back the blessing. The intense tension of all your spiritual nature so binds you that you are not open to the blessing which God is waiting to give you. "Whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely."

He tells me there is cleansing
From every secret sin,
And a great and full salvation
To keep the heart within.
And I take Him in His fulness,
With all His glorious grace,
For He says it is mine by taking,
And I take just what He says.

What impact will you have today?

As you go about your busy day today, what impact will you have? You know, for every action, there is a reaction. Hopefully yours will be a good one. We make impacts on every life we come into contact daily. Remember this as you go about your day. What will you say or do that will touch someones life today? I hope it will be a good impact. I hope it doesn't hurt or harm someone. We have to try daily to be good stewards in life & remember that we, as christians, really need to try & make more of a good impact on people than anyone else, because we are to be like Jesus. Remember that today, as you go about your day.
