Boldness in Prayer

If Jesus said to his disciples, "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be open to you," (Mt 7:7),  we have to assume he meant it. For as he goes on to say, which one of us would give a stone when asked for a loaf of bread, or a snake, when asked for a fish? Jesus is God and we take him at his word. More often than not, the response is better than we asked for or anticipated.  We need not fear to be bold in presenting our requests. needs and desires, not as beggars cowering before a prince, but as friends, simply laying our needs and desires before the Prince of Peace, who loves to be regarded as our best and most trusted Friend.
