Prayer Commitment

“…yet because of his persistence he will get up and give him as much as he needs.” (Luke 11:8b)

            Our Father rewards persistence.  He is impressed when His children don’t give up and show the maturity to endure – even when that endurance is shown in asking Him for something.  Our prayers are meant to leave room for His will (see James 4:13-15), but we are also allowed to continue to petition Him until a clear answer has been shown.  God does not mind hearing from us again and again.

            Do you give up too easily in your prayers?  Do you pray once or twice and then stop?  God recognizes when something is only “kinda” important to us.  Tepid commitment sometimes receives a tepid response.  Be diligent and committed in your prayers.  The Lord rewards the bold in faith.
