In Luke 1, we find Zechariah and Elizabeth.  Both of them have been praying for a child for decades.  Both of them disapppointed because God had not yet answered their prayer.

Like many, maybe they thought like St. Augstine.  “Pray as if God will take care of all; act as if all is up to you.”

Maybe they thought God was disappointed in them.  They needed to try harder to please Him. 

Maybe you think God is disappointed in you.  Maybe you think you need to try harder so God will give you the answer to prayers you have prayed for decades.

I have good news! You don’t have to try harder.  God has everything you need just as you are.

“Come to me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” – Matthew 11:28
