Don't ask too much

As humans most of us are always in dire need of help from each other and from the celestial being "God".

This has resulted in demading the necessary and unnecessary from the Creator, many believers are now caught asking for things that they do not need at the moment. We now see some of them praying and fasting for things that would be needed in their future.

The questions now is this; is it right or wrong to ask God for things that will be needed in the future?
Or based on the fact that God said ask and it shall be given, we can keep asking for things in excess even for days we do not know if we would yet live to witness?

NOTE: The soul may ask God for anything, and never fail because the asks for strenght needed for the moment only.

Praying, we usually ask too much. Sometimes we even demand. I think I am learning to ask enough for the moment not for the whole year, utterly veiled in mystery; not even for the week, the month ahead; but just for today.

Jesus said it all when He told us to pray: 'Give us this day our daily bread.
That bread is not only material, a combination of the physical and spiritual; in asking for it, we ask for a sufficiency of strength, courage, hope and light.

Enough courage for the step ahead not for the further miles. Enough strength for the immediate task or ordeal. Enough material gain to enable us to meet our daily obligations. Enough light to see the path right before our feet.

The field of asking is fundamentally improvisational. It thrives not in the creation of rules and etiquette but in the smashing of that etiquette.
Which is to say: there are no rules. Or, rather, there are plenty of rules, but honestly we got to follow the specification as given by Christ. Or has the specification been subjected to change without notice ? 

What do you have that the Lord didn’t provide?
What do you need that the Lord can’t provide?

Curiosity fueled our determination to keep questioning and wanting more, we had enough yet we can't perceive sufficiency.

Create a sacred space to learn more about your body and mind, go on a date with yourself and explore emotions, sensation, desires, dreams, and accept yourself as you are. By spending some time getting to know yourself better, you will know what you have, have to offer and, it will be easier to ask for what you want for the day.

Gather enough manna for this day and not for tomorrow. Gather for morrow and it'll rot.
All we needed the Lord has provided.
