Today’s Story

Brooke Morrison goes “high tech” with a blog about her trip to Peru.  And it brings along an opportunity that seems too good to pass up.  Meanwhile, there’s trouble in the Richter house.  Friction is building between Tom and Monica over what God’s telling him to do.  It’s all about following God’s lead—NO MATTER WHAT.

 

How about you…

Have you ever had to make a tough decision?  What should a Christian do when opportunities come along?

 

Check this out…

Right toward of the beginning of a letter to Christians written by James (the half-brother of Jesus), he says these words:

 

If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him.

 

Another translation puts it this way:

 

If you need wisdom--if you want to know what God wants you to do--ask him, and he will gladly tell you. He will not resent your asking.

 

Pretty cool, isn’t it?  All we have to do to find out what God wants us to do is—ASK!  But take a look at the next verse (it's a pretty important point), it says:

 

But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.

 

Ask without a doubt.  Now that’s what we call “asking in faith”!
