Things Happen

Sunday. Luke 11: 1-13.

When we know Jesus we are perfectly confident that he hears us. He is so eager to have us come, with our hearts pure and our prayers insistent against the opposition of the evil one. And Jesus has never yet failed anyone who has asked out of an obedient life and an insistence against the power of the evil one. When we forgive even as we desire forgiveness, and expect because of Jesus’ blood, things happen.
