Perhaps you’ve heard the phrase, “Wrestling with God”. Well, let’s just say that I ‘got into the ring’ with the Lord the other day.

I pulled into my driveway, and saw my wife , and one of my sons, on their hands and knees in the grass. I knew something wasn’t right.

I asked, “Is everything ok?” “No, we can’t find the screw that we dropped.” You see, this screw was important in fixing my son’s car. And of course, this was a specialized screw. And, like I mentioned, they were fixing this in the grass.

They had been looking for 15 minutes, and couldn’t find the screw. So, we huddled up, took a moment and prayed. We keep looking. Kept praying. Kept wrestling!!

After several minutes, we found the screw! Now, this wasn’t moving mountains, or curing a disease, but it showed me the joy of praying, instead of being frantic.

Is there something you’ve been missing that needs to be found? I wonder what would happen if you simply stop, pray, and wrestle with God about finding it? Seek the joy of answered prayer.

Keep Wrestling. Go make a difference. Always run by faith.

It would really mean a lot to me if you share this with a friend. Or better yet, like this and subscribe. We need more encouragement in the world!

  1. Tommy, can you pray for my key fob?! I’ve been searching for 10 days, have said prayers and God is making me wait yet!

      1. As of Thursday we made the long drive to the dealership and purchased another set. Then to the Apple Store for air tags so we never loose them again! Lesson learned!!
