We sometimes ask for the wrong things and mostly do this out of fear.
I could remember vividly how I hated driving under the rain, I would rather stay back, join someone else that could drive in the rain or go with a public bus.
This continued for a long time until one day I was out there heading for a state after Lagos State, feeling on top of my game while listening to worship music ( I love to worship).
The sunny Skye suddenly turned cloudy, darker and darker it got until I was forced to whisper prayers to God to please not allow the rain because I do not drive under rain and don't think I could do it at all.
As it started to drizzle (against my wish and prayers),
I heard this voice say to me: "don't pray that it shouldn't rain, pray for grace to drive safely through no matter how heavy the rain becomes."
And so, I quickly picked courage and rephrased my prayers and prayed that God should give me the grace to drive safely through.
Even though I could hardly see beyond the wind screen at a point because it turned out to be a storm, i safely got to my destination (I drove with the caution light on, just-in-case), it was no much fun but that barrier was broken that day and I've been driving under the rain ever since .
Find the lesson.
