Getting the Conversation Going

Matthew 7:7-8	“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened.
Luke 11:9-10	And I tell you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened.
James 1:5	If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.

Ask.  Never stop asking.  Ask through your intellect.  Ask with your mouth.  Ask via your heart.  Remember . . . God absolutely wants to speak wisdom into your being so you will know how He would have you respond to people and circumstances.  If you ask and know that He wants to and will give you this wisdom, trust that you receive wisdom in your innermost being to respond to the world around you.  Trust that your thoughts are not yours alone at the asking.

This asking is intended to go on nonstop.  Do not ever think that you will one day wear out your welcome in the conversation, saying “Now I have asked for one too many things one too many times.”  Jesus never did anything except what he heard the father saying (John 5:30) and saw the father doing (John 5:19).  Did he wear out his welcome in the conversation?
