stop getting and start receiving

I'm really liking Joyce Meyer's Trusting God Day by Day devotional! 

1 John 3:22: "And we receive from Him whatever we ask, because we [watchfully] obey His orders [observe His suggestions and injunctions, follow His plan for us] and [habitually] practice what is pleasing to Him."

"When everything in your life requires effort, life becomes frustrating and exhausting - and that's not the kind of abundant life Jesus came to give us. No, God wants us to live with a holy ease, a grace that keeps us from striving and struggling through life. That doesn't mean everything will be easy, but it means even difficult things can be done with a sense of God's presence and help."
