Keep praying
Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.
- Matthew 7:7
Have you asked for something and are still waiting for an answer? Keep praying; do not give up. The Bible says that many times we do not receive because we do not know how to ask. This is especially true when prayer becomes our last resort.
On the other hand, sometimes we pray and even grow tired of asking for years without seeing the desired change. Do not stop praying! The answer may take time, but trust that it will come. We do not know how or when. But Jesus wants you to know that if you seek Him with your heart, you will receive and find.
For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.
“Which of you, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!
- Matthew 7:8–11
God has good things for you; continue trusting in His love and faithfulness. Keep praying, because the door will open. Soon you will see God at work.
The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,
and his ears are attentive to their cry;
- Psalm 34:15

Ready to face the changes
Change is part of life. There are certain situations and unstable struggles that can shake us. But remember: there is hope!
God never changes. He is good at all times. If you put your hope and trust in the Lord, nothing in this world can take away your peace.
Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion,
which cannot be shaken but endures forever.
As the mountains surround Jerusalem,
so the Lord surrounds his people
both now and forevermore.
- Psalm 125:1-2
God never abandons you or leaves you alone in times of change or uncertainty. He is with you, around you, caring for you, and helping you. Stay in communion with Him, and you will feel His presence and peace in the midst of any circumstance. He will help you stand firm and with Him, you will overcome.
We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain, where our forerunner, Jesus, has entered on our behalf. He has become a high priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek.
- Hebrews 6:19–20
Never lose hope in God. He is your firm anchor, and in Him you are secure for all eternity. Face change with confidence, stand firm in Him, and you will achieve victory for the glory of the Lord.
Prepare to stand firm in the battle: Prayers to Calm the Heart, For Peace and Tranquility

Make a Difference in Someone's Life
Jesus gave His life for you. That's a truth that fills us with joy, isn't it?
But the Bible tells us that as followers of Jesus, our duty is to do the same for our brothers and sisters. That's where things get tougher.
This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters.
1 John 3:16
When we see a brother or sister in need, our reaction should be to do everything within our reach to help. The passage challenges us to act in love by putting others' needs before our own, just as Jesus did.
Perhaps the Holy Spirit has brought someone to your mind right now. Don't waste time; act like Jesus. Go and help. Give of yourself. This is the greatest blessing anyone can receive. And it makes all the difference.
