"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened." -Jesus (Matt. 7:7-8 NIV)
"There is but one straight course, and that is to seek truth and pursue it steadily.”
Proverbs 24:11-12
Rescue those being led away to death; hold back those staggering toward slaughter. If you say, "But we knew nothing about this," does not he who weighs the heart perceive it? Does not he who guards your life know it? Will he not repay each person according to what he has done?
I pray that my life may be an encouragement to others. As my dreams come true, I pray others see that God gives us the desires of our hearts. As I stand up for God and the things of God, I pray others see the rewards of serving Him, even when we face persecution. As I wait for my true love (even through struggles), I pray others see that it is good to not awaken love before it desires. I pray that as I strive to be a better and better Christian, people will see that we can do all things through Christ who gives us strength. I pray that I do all these things so that at the end I can say, "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith."
In Jesus' name, amen.
