“If
you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much
more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!”
– Matthew 7:11
Previous week my
eldest brother’s little daughter went to the shop where my dad works and asked
him to gift wrap a small key chain. She actually asked that to gift it to my
eldest brother on his birthday. My father funnily asked her to give him money
so that he can give the key chain to her. She got irritated by the answer and
told my father, “I am asking this for your son. If you don’t have a heart to
give a small gift to your son on his birthday then what is the meaning of you
being a father to him?”
My dad got astonished
and later he gave what she asked. But we all were amazed at the question she
asked. Though she was a little girl less than 8 years old, her question had a
great truth in it. Her understanding about being a father is that he has to
provide things for his child.
If a worldly father
has to provide the things which his children need how much more our Heavenly
Father will provide for us. He promises in Matthew 7:11 that He will give good
things to His children.
Jesus Christ will
bless you more than you imagine. He will provide you what you need. He will not
just give you things that you need but He will give you what is good for you.
All you have to do is to ask Him.
I know a young guy who
is currently doing a management degree. Though he is a weak student he always
trusted God to bless him. Initially he struggled in his studies and in
Spiritual life. But yet he prayed to God to bless him earnestly. As his final
year approached he doesn’t know where to do his project. Most of his friends
got permission from big industries but he could not get one. He prayed a lot.
Miraculously God opened a way and he got permission to do his project as
internship in Dubai. He went there and did his project successfully and
returned back.
Till few months back
he had no idea that he will be going to Dubai for an internship. All he did was
he asked Jesus Christ to show him a way. God heard his prayer and opened a way
for him. Few days back he finished his review successfully and he met me with
so much happiness.
My dear young friends,
Jesus Christ is your Father. He knows the desires of your heart. He will bless
you more than what you imagine. Ask God what you need. He will bless you richly
with the desires of your heart. Your Heavenly Father will never leave you as
orphans. He will come to you and bless you.
