" Sovereign Lord you are God! Your words are trustworthy, and you have promised these good things to your servant. Now be pleased to bless the house of your servant, that it may continue forever in your sight; for you, Sovereign Lord, have spoken, and with your blessing the house of your servant will be blessed forever.”
2 Samuel 7:28-29
God is trustworthy.
Those in our daily life may not be.
So accept the blessings he gives.
And keep asking.
Sometimes requests are not answered.
By God,
or by those in our daily life.
But don't stop asking.
Don't take pride in not asking,
because that is inaction.
Take pride in what you DO.
Not what you don't do.
And let others do the same.

Filled with the Spirit
"Be very careful, then, how you live —not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is. Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit"
Ephesians 5:15-18
Be careful. Be wise. Make the most of each day. One day at a time.
Ephesians 5:15-18

More on asking
"If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you."
John 15:7
God wants us to ask for help. For "whatever" we wish. Remember what is read. Remember what is learned. Keep the words close. Follow them. In our heads. In our hearts. In our actions.

Ask for help
Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you 1 Peter 5:7
Sometimes we stop asking for help. Try doing it our way. There is no forward motion. Maybe we keep reading. But the yearning to move, to change is buried. No growth.
Time to get this "show on the road" as my Dad always said.
Ask for help. It doesn't have to be elaborate. It doesn't have to be well worded. "Oh my God" is a prayer. An exclamation about something that is happening. We don't have time to say "God please stop that car from sliding into mine" so we shout "Oh my God!" He hears. He knows we need help. He responds. Today ask.
