Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered outside the gate. Therefore, let us go forth to him outside the camp, bearing his reproach. For we have no continuing city here, but we seek one to come.
Select a thought to read by choosing a collection, the month, and then the day:
"My son if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with
thee,
so that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to understanding,
Yea,
if thou criest after knowledge and liftest up thy voice for understanding,
then
shalt thou understand the fear of the Lord, and find the knowledge
of God."
Proverbs 3:1-4
If you want to understand life, and if you want to know what God thinks, He is waiting to help you understand. He will speak to you if you will ask Him.
I remember the time that I sought Him earnestly for days concerning the purpose of Moses' tabernacle, digging for the answer as if searching for hidden treasure. My, what an amazing answer He gave! How it opened my eyes! And how that wonderful truth has blessed many others over the years! God is faithful. He will do what He says He will do.
"You have not because you ask not," wrote James. And Jesus said, "Ask, and ye shall receive . . . every one that asketh receiveth." That saying is true. He is waiting to hear your voice. Don't come short of God's answer for your life simply because you never asked for it.
