His Word Today: Seek

Good morning everyone,

If we are truly fortunate, there is at least one person who we can call on - at any time of day or night - should we be in need of help.  This is the kind of relationship that Jesus says we can have with his Father.

Speaking about the relationship they could (and we all can) cultivate with our heavenly Father, Jesus told the disciples: Ask and you will receive, seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened to you (Lk 11:9).  This kind of trust may not be easy for us to imagine, especially if we are not accustomed to a life of prayer, but it is possible for every one of us to establish this level of trust.  It all begins when we are able to call out to God.

Perhaps today, we may find a moment or two to whisper a few words - even if they are tentatively uttered: God, if you're there, help me to believe.  Then get ready; the answers may come flooding in and they will be wonderful.

Have a great day.
