Ask, Ask, Ask

“Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.”

Matthew 7:7

“I have recently discovered something that’s brought a sense of adventure to my daily round. It’s so simple, it’s scary. It’s asking for what we want. Help. Advice. Wisdom. Guidance. Information–especially information.”

“We don’t ask because we’re afraid somebody will say ‘no.’ But when wishful thinking doesn’t magically manifest what we want, we feel we’ve been denied. So, in future, we choose not to ask, but continue to wish, existing in a constant state of deprivation.”

“Ask for what you need and want. Ask to be taught the right questions. Ask to be answered. Ask for the Divine Plan of your life to unfold though joy. Ask politely. Ask with passion. Ask with a grateful heart and you will be heard. Just ask.”

“I am learning to exercise this muscle more. I am learning to not be attached to the answer as I build this muscle. Instead, I am just asking for what I need and want so that the ask itself gets easier.”
