I’m afraid I’m guilty of not asking God often enough 🙁

Ask first. Hard to believe they tore up your bridge for paddles. wow. how rude. Wrong decisions are slippery sloops, aren they? Have a great weekend, Lisa. Your blog always blesses me.

I like your analogy. Very fitting. For too long, and sometimes still, I’ll move ahead at my own whim then after I’ve got myself in a jam, I reach out to our Father for help.

Thanks for the reminder, Lisa. Great story and love your calm example.

We do tend to do the same thing – dig ourselves into a bigger and bigger mess, rather than ask for forgiveness and come clean. Thanks Lisa.

God has manners and likes to see us use ours! So ask if you want something from Him.

Stopping by from a linkup!

Yes, why do I have such a problem with asking God boldly? He’ll say no it’s a crazy idea. If I’m likely to sink as a result. This is such a great story, Lisa (although sorry about your boat and your footbridge!) Thanks for sharing… stopping by from #MomentsofHope

Beautiful example for a lesson that we all need to be reminded of as we begin this week.
