And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
Matthew 21:22
Sometimes, all we can do is ask. Sometimes, all we can do is keep on asking. Sometimes.
Asking can seem like such a small thing. Yet, it is what He asked us to do. There is something about a submissive spirit, and trusting and yielding spirit, that is required to ask someone in authority over you for something you need. They could tell you no. They could condemn or ridicule you for your lack of ability in yourself. They could ignore you like you just don’t matter. They wound you in so many ways, because the place of asking is the place of opening up your vulnerability.
