Luke 11:8 - "I tell you, even though he will not get up and give him anything because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence, he will get up and give him as much as he needs".

When I am reviewing for exams, my father would tell me to make a reviewer, and then I need to go through it over and over again until I memorize everything. And you know what, it really worked. I can always pass the quizzes and exams.
And to develop a habit or a skill, we need to do it over and over again, until we master it. During the first time I rode a bike, I fell and suffered bruises. During the first time I baked a bread, it was hard as a rock.
But as I do it over and over again, I was able to master riding a bike and baking a bread. And this persistence has made me realized that anything is achievable if you would put your heart and mind to it.
Are you experiencing pain now? Are you depressed? Have you tried telling God your worries by praying? How many times? Only once and then you stop? No wonder you continue to be in your saddest state.
Try doing it again. Not once or twice, but over and over again. Until you develop that habit of talking to Him, reaching to Him, opening your heart to Him.
Now, isn't that a great feeling?
+ Let us pray: Almighty Father, hear our prayers. I will not get tired of doing it again and again, as You are not getting tired also of truly blessing us over and over again. Let us open our hearts to You, as we listen fully and follow Your will. Thank you, Lord, for listening and giving what is right, Amen +
