Many of God’s sweetest blessings are obtained only by persevering through difficulties. “Knock,” Jesus said, “and the door will be opened to you.” When you knock on a door, you don’t hit the door once and then just stand there. You hit repeatedly. When you seek God’s blessing, you keep pressing through stubborn obstacles and difficulties. You knock once, then again and again. So don’t let difficultly in your path make you automatically assume you’re out of God’s will.
