Prayer answered, love nourished
“I love the Lord, because he hath heard my voice and my supplication.”
Psalm 116:1
Suggested Further Reading:
Ephesians 6:18-24
If a beggar comes to your house, and you give him alms, you will be greatly annoyed if within a month he shall come again; and if you then discover that he has made it a rule to wait upon you monthly for a contribution, you will say to him, “I gave you something once, but I did not mean to establish it as a rule.”
Suppose, however, that the beggar should be so impudent and impertinent that he should say, “But I intend sir, to wait upon you every morning and every evening,” then you would say,
“I intend to keep my gate locked that you shall not trouble me.”
And suppose he should then look you in the face and add still more, “Sir, I intend waiting upon you every hour, nor can I promise that I won’t come to you sixty times in an hour; but I just vow and declare that as often as I want anything so often will I come to you: if I only have a wish I will come and tell it to you; the least thing and the greatest thing shall drive me to you; I will always be at the post of your door.”
You would soon be tired of such importunity as that, and wish the beggar anywhere, rather than that he should come and tease you so. Yet recollect, this is just what you have done to God, and he has never complained of you for doing it; but rather he has complained of you the other way. He has said, “Thou hast not called upon me, O Jacob.”
He has never murmured at the frequency of your prayers, but has complained that you have not come to him enough.
For meditation:
In his unchanging willingness and desire to hear his childrens’ requests, God is unlike any person we know.
Jesus had to teach this lesson by contrast, rather than by comparison (Luke 11:5-13; 18:1-8).
