That night God appeared to Solomon and said, “What do you want? Ask, and I will give it to you!” 2 Chronicles 1:7 NLT

“Papa? I want a popsicle?” Asked my little blonde haired, blue eyed, three year-old granddaughter.

“Another one? Already?” I asked.

“Yes!” She said.

“Did you ask your mom? Did you ask Grandma?” I list the options for her to chose.

“Nope.” She says as she flutters her eyelashes and gives me one of those labrador retriever kind of looks.

“Ok, sure.” I say as I open the frigidaire freezer door and grab a frozen popsicle.

What do you want?

  • A Gazillion Dollars?
  • A Porsche car?
  • A Ram 3500 truck?
  • Good health?
  • Wisdom?
  • Knowledge?
  • Love?
  • Hope?
  • A steak?
  • An avocado?
  • A peanut butter samwitch? Would you like some jelly to go with it?

Tell me what do you want? So I can give it to you.
