Ask God for one thing

This weekend I was blessed to hear the amazing Robin Jones Gunn speak. Twice. And I cried both times.

She shared one story about a girl who asked God for one thing. And God replied.

Another day this same girl asked God for one thing. And He answered.

Every request she made brought her closer to God. The girl's last request in the story was to meet Robin. The girl didn't know it at the time, but she and Robin were on the same island in Hawaii for about six hours together. And Robin had a very small window to surprise the girl with a visit. She could have ignored God's nudging, but she sought out the girl.

They had a wonderful visit and to this day remain friends.


This weekend I asked God for one thing. He BLESSED me with three. I'm so excited that my head is still spinning.

What about you? What one thing would you like to ask God for today?

  1. I heard her speak too!

    The one thing I'd ask? Strength to wait for His timing.
