God has given us the best gift, the life-redeeming gift of Salvation and the life-guiding indwelling of the Holy Spirit. The Bible teaches us to ask, seek, and knock (Matthew 7:7-8). To ask is to have our needs clarified by God, to seek is to have those needs corrected in keeping with His will, and to knock is to receive passage into the abundant life filled with His Spirit. The opportunity to ask, seek and knock are all gifts from God. However, we must be patient and wait for God's timing, rather than following our own will and jumping ahead of God's plans for us. Wait patiently for God; He never disappoints! — Matthew 7:7-12
