The Practice of Asking

The Transformative Power of Asking: Abiding in God's Joy.

The Rev. Rob Stevens reflects on John 15:7-11.

The practice of asking, as explored in this Gospel reading, serves as a powerful mirror reflecting our true desires, hopes, and the interplay of our relationship with God and others. It unveils the transformative potential of vulnerability and self-discovery. Ultimately, the act of asking propels us toward abiding in God, and through this abiding, we find ourselves filled with a joy that transcends circumstances and becomes a source of light for a world in need. As we ask, we embrace the profound truth that we are seekers and vessels of divine joy, forever cherished as God's beloved children.
