Just Ask
by Barbara Philbrook

Just ask and you will receive.
We are told do this and then to believe.

Do you have a need you want to be met?
Just ask and believe and see what you get.

Are you ill and want to be made well?
"By His wounds we are healed" Isaiah 53:5 does tell.

Are your food supplies running low?
"He provides food for those who fear Him..." in Psalm 111:5 it allows us to know.

Do you have enemies who wish you harm?
Read proverbs 16:7 and know you are safe. No need for alarm.

Do you fear retribution for a mistake you made?
Psalms 37:24 shows plans for every instance have already been laid.

Do you suffer a mighty thirst?
Go to Isaiah chapter forty four the third verse.

Do you hate accepting charity from another?
Proverbs 14:21 tells us that by refusing help we deprive a blessing for a brother.

Just ask God to take over your life.
Roman's 8:28 assures us all things work for our good, even strife.
