Scripture
20Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, 21to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.” Ephesians 3:20-21 (NIV)

Prayer. The simple idea of prayer can lead every person down very different paths. For some, it is a bright beacon of hope. And for others, it can be a dark journey through desperation. Wherever you may be on that journey sister, know that God is bigger. This doxology that Paul writes emphasizes that God is able to do “immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine.” 

So when we pray, we need not know the perfect thing to ask for. We don’t need to have the right words or feelings. God knows exactly what to answer every prayer with because He is bigger than we can even imagine. I know, it’s baffling to try and imagine something outside of our imagination, but that’s God. He’s more incredible, powerful and loving than we can understand right now.

The grace He extends to us my friend, is enough to understand our prayers, even when we don’t. So pray! Pray without ceasing! Perhaps He will reveal to you what you’re praying for, or perhaps He will reveal something to you entirely unrelated, something outside of our imagination!
