God Appreciates Desperation

I’ve found that God appreciates desperation. Have you discovered that? And sometimes He waits until we cry out, until we lift up our voice. It says of Jesus, ‘He prayed with vehement cries and tears.’ He gave Himself totally in prayer. I cannot exactly explain all of God’s dealings, but I’ll tell you there are times in your life when God waits for you to be desperate. You say, ‘God, why are you letting all this happen to me?’ And God says, ‘I’m waiting for you to be desperate.’ ‘Why do you want me desperate, God?’ ‘Because that’s the only way you can express your appreciation of what I’m offering. Until you’re prepared to be desperate, you don’t appreciate what I’m offering.’
