STOP PUSHING & START ASKING

(Matthew 7:7-11) Whenever it comes to us worrying and stressing out over the circumstances we find ourselves in, Jesus always points up – to the goodness and generosity of a Heavenly Father with infinite love, infinite resources, infinite wisdom and infinite time. We tend to not even look up! We’re pushing, scrounging, badgering our kids, trying to pry open safes and kick down doors – and He simply asks us, “Have you even ASKED?” The underlying question is, “What do you really think of your Heavenly Dad? Are you a better, more generous, kinder Dad than He is?” Asking, Looking/Seeking, and Knocking seems so passive doesn’t it? Longterm, though – You’ll WISH you had, and You’ll be GLAD you did!  *Go to LAUNCH SERMON PLAYER for PDF and YouTube Podcast NEW!
