This seems a little cheeky but that thing that bothers you, I hope you don’t mind but I have a question for you.

The job that frustrates you.

The marriage that seems lost.

The neighbour from hell.

The sickness that just won’t go.

The kids and their behaviour.

The financial decisions that are causing you so much stress.

The habit that has such a stronghold.

That tested friendship.

The miracle you so want to see.

Those people you would love too see become Christians.

The decision that needs to be made.

Have you prayed about it?

I’m sure you have, so ignore me. Yet I’m just curious, because if you are anything like me then sometimes we work really hard at trying to sort these things out for ourselves, we exert unending amounts of energy to resolve certain situations but we don’t spend the same levels of energy asking God.

Working hard is important. Praying is important too. Don’t stop doing either. But pray more.
