Have you
had your JOY JUICE today? Do you want a tiny
sip or a great big serving? It’s up to
you…..just ask!
Jim Rohn
says that “asking is the beginning of receiving.
Make sure that you don’t go to the ocean with a teaspoon.”
When you ask
God for blessings, do you expect Him to answer….abundantly? Or do you send up half-hearted prayers, not
expecting much. There’s a
story told about George Mueller that illustrates how God loves each of us and
wants to bless us in even the minor details of our lives!
"Mueller was moving his family and his ministry
to another part of England. All day, workmen carried Mueller’s household
belongings over the hill and down to the barge that would take them to their
new home. As the barge was about to push
off from shore, they noticed that everything was safely on board except one
thing—George Mueller’s favorite chair.
But the captain refused to delay his departure.
So Mueller stood on the deck and prayed
aloud, “O Lord, please hurry and bring me my chair.” The captain, scoffed at
this minister who would bother almighty God with such a silly request. He
ordered his crew to untie the mooring lines.
Just then a man crested the hill, running. He was carrying George’s favorite chair on
his head! "
Now, how
‘bout that for a serving of JOY!?
Never forget that what’s important to you,
is important to God! Get your buckets ready for an outpouring of JOY! And start
asking…NOW!
