Asking of God...

God always wants us to ask of Him... He will always answer! He is not a killjoy God... He is a father! He is OUR father! Don't hesitate! He is more eager for our desires than we ourselves are for those desires!


To convince you of this, let me quote Luke 11:5-8:


Then Jesus said to them, “Suppose you have a friend, and you go to him at midnight and say, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread; a friend of mine on a journey has come to me, and I have no food to offer him.’ And suppose the one inside answers, ‘Don’t bother me. The door is already locked, and my children and I are in bed. I can’t get up and give you anything.’ I tell you, even though he will not get up and give you the bread because of friendship, yet because of your shameless audacity he will surely get up and give you as much as you need.


And also, verses 11-13:


“Which of you fathers, if your son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead? Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!”


See?


Don't hesitate to ask God! Don't just worry or daydream... Talk to Him about it!


I hope your relationship with Him will be much much more intimate than before!
