Do your expectations match the ability of the Giver?
“Ask boldly, believingly, without a second thought. People who “worry their prayers” are like wind-whipped waves.” James 1:6 MSG I must admit that I often limit a limitless God by bowing before him and meekly asking for minimal things and then weakly expecting.

Jagless
NOTE: No Jaguar owners were harmed in the writing of these thoughts. Years ago I found myself sitting in the Jaguar of Palm Beach dealership. Now this statement alone is fraught with all kinds of contradictions and raises more questions than I can answer. But there I was, sitting, observing, squirming and feeling completely out…
