Put your order in

There is a certain level of confidence that we have when we order at a restaurant. We give our directions, complete with all of our substitutions or additions and then we sit back and wait for our food, knowing that it will come eventually.

The key is in the ordering..

It may sound too simplistic, but you if you do not make your request known,then how can it be filled?

This morning I found a journal entry from Feb 08 that had listed out my vision for several large projects that I wanted to accomplish within a year. They were lofty goals some of which I have done and others are still a work in progress. What really grabbed my attention was a section where I listed out in detail everything I thought I would need to reach a particular goal. I can see from my journal that I was feeling a tad overwhelmed with the scope of the vision, but it did not stop me from listing out everything I needed and then committing it to the Lord to bring it about. Fast forward to 18 months later and I can see how every single need I listed in that journal was met without me really doing much. The needs I had were beyond my skill or financial level to achieve on my own but God who is intimately concerned with your needs and desires made a way for it to all come together
. Their were many days when I did not think the vision was going to happen, but one thing I kept doing was being specific and intentional with what my request was.

I put my order in with heaven and heaven answered with something bigger and brighter then I had even asked for. Is that not just like God to do it up big in our lives!. I believe God delights in seeing us delighted.

It brings me back full circle to wondering why I spend any time at all be anxious about anything?

"Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication (asking) with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God: And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard our hearts and your minds through Christ Jesus" Phil 4:6-7

Make your request known to Him today..
