I got up early one morning, and rushed into the day. I had so much to accomplish, that I didn't have time to pray. Problems just tumbled about me, and heavier came each task. "Why doesn't God help me?" I wondered. He answered, "You didn't ask." I wanted to see joy and beauty, but the day toiled on, gray and bleak. I wondered why God didn't show me, He said, "But you didn't seek." I tried to come into God's presence, I used all my keys at the lock. God gently and lovingly chided, "My child, you didn't knock." I woke up early this morning, and paused before entering the day. I had so much to accomplish that I had to take some time to pray.

I didn't write this, and I don't know who did. But I hope it hits your hear somehow, in some way. I'm not a perfect Christian, nobody is. But this is the Truth, your day is so much different when you take some time to recognize.
