What are you asking for?

What if the thing you are asking God to change isn’t what you need? The young church in Colossae under intense cultural, social, and spiritual pressure. Instead of praying for a change in the culture around them, Paul prays for something more radical. He prays that they would be filled with the knowledge of Jesus....and this knowledge gives them the strength to endure. When we're tired, discouraged, or just spiritually numb, this prayer can completely reshape our approach to life.
