P.U.S.H.

“Mom, it was horrible! I can’t do it!” cried my nine year old daughter.  I had just picked her up from gymnastics practice and obviously she had a rough night.  I already knew what she was referring to that she “couldn’t do “.  She hasn’t been performing up to her standard on her bar routine lately.

I turned to her and asked, “Aubrei are you praying about this?”  

“Yes”, she continued to cry, “but it’s still not working!”

“Aubrei,” I said, “when you pray, you can’t pray once and if nothing changes you stop praying. You can’t pray two times and stop praying . You can’t pray three times and stop praying. You gotta keep praying until what you are praying for happens.”

After talking with her, I realized that even as adults, we need to be reminded of this.  When we are seeking God for breakthrough, no matter how long it takes, we must P.U.S.H.; we must Pray Until Something Happens.  

Be encouraged!  Your help is on the way!
