My son Jonathan, does virtual school and often times is presented with timed tests. His best time thus far has been 1 minute 0 seconds. This afternoon my wife eavesdropped on him and heard him praying. “God – I know that you helped me to get one minute and 0 seconds, but I’m asking you to help me get less than one minute. I know that you can do it for me. I thank you in Jesus Name, Amen.” Well he tried and got done in 1 minute and 17 seconds. Connie encouraged him to relax and not be so anxious. So, he decided to try it again. This time he got his answers correct in 57 seconds. He exclaimed, “Aw man, I thought asking God will be cheating, but I’m glad he helped me.” I thought that was so very funny…

It got me to thinking about what I was struggling with lately? I guess it’s ok to “cheat” and ask God to weigh in on the matter. He might just help me too!
