Put all of it. In your own trunk. Not in someone else’s.

January 26, James 1:5-6

“If you don’t know what you’re doing, pray to the Father. He loves to help. You’ll get his help, and won’t be condescended to when you ask for it. Ask boldly, believingly, without a second thought. People who “worry their prayers” are like wind-whipped waves. Don’t think you’re going to get anything from the Master that way, adrift at sea, keeping all your options open.”

James 1:5-6 MSG – A verse of the day from the Bible presented in Eugene Peterson’s contemporary version called The Message. Accompanied by a personal reflection below.

This idea of petitioning God in a bold way has been a recurring one of late for me, and I find it very coincidental to have found this verse today in support of the same concept.  “Ask boldly, believingly, without a second thought” is James’ advice to his readers.  This faith thing truly needs to be put into practice, you see.  Don’t ask half-heartedly, but with a confidence that comes from having considered what must truly be God’s will for you, and asking accordingly.  For in doing so, you are displaying the kind of faith that many before you and me have exemplified and have been the richer for.
