This slogan appeared recently on our outdoor sign at church. We might wish for many things in life - some of them being nothing more than a pipe dream. Usually, when we do have a wish, we are hoping for something big. While there is something big that we desire in life, there, too, might be a smidgeon of doubt that it will actually materialize. In the end, it only remains a thought that comes and goes.
Let me tell you how your wish might come true. Put your wish into a prayer. Do you believe God is big enough to handle what you want? If so, you have the resource that you need.
I believe that it is a sad fact of life, that there are many things for which we do not have, because we haven't bothered to ask God. The book of James says, "You do not have, because you do not ask." James 4:2.
The next time you are daydreaming, think about what you really desire in life that would bring value to you. Think, too, about committing yourself to a life of prayer. Ask for it.
