Christ
is Risen! Alleluia!
In
the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
“Whatever you ask of the Father in My Name, He will give it to
you.” Thus Jesus promises the
disciples before He departs from this world. The people of God will
not be left stranded, but the Father will look out for their
well-being. All they need do is ask in Jesus' name, and trust God to
give what they need.
On this occasion, Jesus gives a
lesson about how Christians ought to pray. “Ask, and you
shall receive, that your joy may be full.”
Ask the Father for what you need, and He will give it to you, in
order that your joy might have been fulfilled. You have not because
you ask not. Just ask for what you need and God will give it.
