The Saints did not often pray for more bounty. For answers and help to their needs. They did pray for these things, but they mostly prayed for more of Jesus. For more of the presence of the savior. Give me more of Jesus. The tractor broke down. They prayed for Jesus’s presence. A bone was broken. They prayed for Jesus to be near. Finances were failing. They prayed for Jesus to show Himself. The Saints prayed mostly for the presence of God and they knew that everything else would fall under His presence. Every need would fall under God just being near. We forget to seek His presence. We forget to look for His face and that everything else falls under being with God. It’s the moment when we want Jesus more than anything else. Even if He does not heal. Even if He does not provide. Even if the brokenness lingers. Do we seek for Jesus? Do we say, “your will God. I know you still have me.”
It’s not about all He does, it’s about who He is. Seek Him and all will fall in place under Him.
Do we seek Him?
