In the 11th Chapter of a book named after its author, Luke, you’ll read of a man and his neighbor. The first man went to his neighbor to ask for food to host a visitor in his house. The story shares that the first man had nothing in his home to feed his guest and shamelessly went to his neighbor to ask for food in the wee hours of the night.

We see them as liabilities to our existence; we’ll rather not deal with them altogether. What we need to understand is that there is a blessing associated to being shamelessly audacious. That same book and chapter I referred to above talks about asking in order to receive, seeking in order to find, and knocking in order for a closed door to be opened to us.

It is of great importance that when we have a longing for something, we need not worry what others may think of us. It is of great importance that we weigh the blessings and outcome of receiving what we need and want over the perception of those around us. It is of great importance that we focus on what our purpose is, pursue our goals and ignore wandering/judgmental eyes. Even if the giver is a proud pompous and arrogant (yes, all 3 words are synonymous) fellow, look past their attitude, get what is rightfully yours, and move on to your next God given goal.

Best wishes,
