How to find truth; lessons learned from a 14 year old boy.

A desire to know truth

Opening the scriptures in quest of an answer

Received: direction, desire, determination

Pondering the question to ask, the place to ask it

Kneeling

Praying out loud

Pouring out the desires of your heart

Persisting despite doubt and darkness

You call on the Lord

Delivered from the enemy 

Your name is known and spoken  

Your sins are forgiven

You ask

Hear Him

Light and truth are given

Do not deny God’s power

Learn for yourself

Do not fear persecution

God has a work for you to do

You will find the testimony of James to be true—that a man who lacked wisdom might ask of God, and obtain, and not be upbraided.

What truth do you seek? Will you Hear Him?

Early Spring two hundred years ago a 14 year old boy sought truth and was answered. We can seek truth in the same way.
