“Keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives….”

How many times have we needed to ask a question of another person, but we just won’t do it.  I found myself in a hardware store not able to find what I was looking for, but for whatever reason, I just didn’t go find a sales associate to ask which aisle I needed to be looking for.  It was like a force field was stopping me from doing so.  So, I walked up and down aisles until I found it, wasting precious time.  How much time do we waste when we could save that time if we only would reach out to a co-worker instead of trying to go it alone. What are we afraid of?  If there are no “dumb” questions, then we should never hesitate to ask and ask often.

Jesus implores us to ask and keep asking; for anything! What is on our plate today that we need to ask for help?  What answer do we need to a problem?  Whatever it is, let’s start this day asking!
