Then Zachariah said to the angel, “How shall I know this? For I am an old man and my wife is advanced in years.”
(Luke 1:18)
Zachariah wanted proof. He did not ask, “How can this be?” but “How can I know this?” If an angel stood before me, Lord, would I believe he was your messenger?
I pray for discernment of your will. I do not know what impulses and ideas come from you. I doubt myself. Yet, if I keep asking, you will show me.
Please help me today to make a decision after praying about it and then to act with confidence. You who write straight with crooked lines will use my efforts for your good. My Jesus, I trust in you.
