Read James 4:2-3
There may come a time in your life when you wonder why you are not growing in your faith. Or you might wonder why you don’t ever have the opportunity to lead others to Christ. When you ask yourself these kinds of questions, you may be able to answer them with another question: Have I asked God to help me in this area?
Understand that this passage does not advocate that you “demand” things from God as though he were some “cosmic butler” prepared to answer your every beck and call. Yet it is equally wrong to fail to ask Him to help meet your needs or to bless your life and spiritually strengthen you. God wants to bless you because you are his child.
Take a moment to look at your own spiritual progress. Do you want the Lord to show you what your gifts and talents are? God wants to bless you, but He may be just waiting for your invitation to do so.
