Ask and you shall receive

I surround myself with believers everywhere I can, but at work that is such a difficult thing to do because I work in academia. Here I feel that believers are the minority and the non-believing liberals are the majority; because of this I must pray for strength and guidance every single day of life. So, with that said, my prayer yesterday morning was to have God reveal himself to me at work. Now, in my free time at work I read Christian blogs & news and keep my K-love playing on my radio but some days it seem like just not enough. On my way in the door at work yesterday, I once again prayed for this revealing. I go to my office log in as usual and check email. The first email I had was from a professor who needed research help. So I answered his question and the automated generated email response from him,was a reference to the book of Psalms. YES, a college professor who is a believer and not ashamed to share and show it.

The email said, "Worried about the economy? Worried about the future? Read Psalm 49. May the Lord continue to bless you."

Now I know that some may read this and say well, what's two lines. For me, yesterday, it was a thousand words. This brought tears to my eyes and just reminded that he is real and if you give to him he will give to us. After all he has done for us as people, in my life and continues to do, we should always give HIM the glory!!!!!
