    I look at asking, seeking, and knocking, that is, the start and the finish of faith to receiving from God; much like the great rockets of the old NASA space programs like that of the Mercury and Apollo missions.

    A.S.K. Text: Matthew 7:7 Remember: The devil doesn’t appose: -what you want to do… -what you’d like to do… -But, what you are called (by God) to do.
