Easy To Ask For Things
It is very easy to ask for things in life from God. It’s harder to do things for God. The same concept can be applied to people in general. If a father gives a son everything, he wants does the father truly love his son? Some things will not be appropriate for the son so a loving father will know when not to give.
Harder To Do Things
If you were tasked with creating an A-Z list of things you want from God I am sure the list would be unending. If you were to think of things you would do for God in comparison all of a sudden that list shrinks. A relationship is a 2 way channel and should be approach from a balanced lens. We are fortunate regardless of our action God loves us unconditionally however displaying actions of love makes him happy so we should make the effort. God wants us to seek him for things however like anything in life it should be done with good balance.
