Push Through

So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive His mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it ~ Hebrews 4:16.

Our dog, Peyton, has a routine he follows every morning. He goes out, he gets fed, he burps, and then he stands at the door to the office where I'm spending time with God. He'll stand there and breathe heavily and wait for me to notice him. When I do, I tell him to "push through," push the door open and come one in. Peyton then comes, gets 30 seconds of love, and then is content to lay down or leave the room.

God wants us to be like that. He wants us to come boldly to His throne. Sometimes, we have to push through people, circumstances, or other obstacles, but He always wants us to come. If you have a request for the Lord, if you need His grace and mercy, then He beckons you today, "Push through whatever is blocking you, and come to me." He is our heavenly Father, and more than anything, He loves to spend time with us. Push through to spend time with Him, today.
