I found this on Facebook and since it made me tear up – I’m sharing it here too.

ASK!
John 16:23-25
. . . ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.
via John 16:23-25 KJV;CJB – And in that day ye shall ask me – Bible Gateway.
Because of the event we are memorializing this day and the day coming we will be celebrating – Resurrection Sunday – we can ask and receive!
So do it! ASK!
Whatever it is ASK. You cannot ask too much of HIM – HE has given His ALL.
You can ask in complete safety because if what you ask is not good for you, in His great love for you He will say, ‘No, receive this instead, it is more than you expect and far better.’
So ASK. Ask believing – the cross and the resurrection of JESUS CHRIST should be enough. Shouldn’t it?
Yes, LORD YESHUA, it is enough. It is finished. YOU have given Your All and it is enough. Enough blood to cleanse all our sins. Enough joy to brighten the way and the heart on the saddest of days. Enough love to love even the unloveliest. Enough mercy to pardon the most evil. Enough grace to lift up and set on a new road the chief of sinners. I pray now for those who have not yet ASKED that they yet will.
Thank You for Jamie’s improving condition. And since I am asking, ABBA, I am asking that You will remove ALL cancer from Jamie’s body and give her a new lease on this earthly journey. Kerri. Still asking for miracles. Dylan. Since his surgery was postponed – thanking You and asking again for textbook perfect surgery this coming Wednesday and recovery to follow. Dori. Always increasing health for her – that she will walk again. Lance. That he will walk again too; comfort and strength for him and his family. Alyssa. A miracle healing, ABBA, we pray. Ray. Comfort and vision for a well completed journey in Your time. Pam and Vicki – comfort in grieving. Peace and protection for Israel. Revival for America. Sunday School members – their individual requests. And all other matters on our hearts. We bring them individually and collectively and we ask for Your Glory and Your Will to be made plain in them all. Our thank You-s are not enough ABBA but we offer them the same and ask for more surrendered hearts and deeper love for You and each other for JESUS sake.
The First Day
is well underway. Actually, the day is waning and evening of the first day is coming on strong!
2013
We welcome you because we know each of the moments you intend our ABBA holds them in His Holy, Just and Loving Hands before He allows them to greet our faces.
I could come to our page with regrets and siting my failures of 2012 or with resolutions for 2013 but I am determined to come with only this.
I have one word for me in 2013.
Live
Live for His glory and all my other hopes will come along in their appointed times; like shaping up and shedding fat cells; like less TV viewing and more reading; a cleaner house; more shepherding my classmates and lots of blessing my beloved hubby and family.
We have a great adventure ahead or a gloomy existence — it really is our choice — moment by moment.
Help me choose well by praying often for me — won’t you?

what is good, what Adonai demands of you —
no more than to act justly, love grace
and walk in purity with your God.
