You Are Only Responsible For What He Gave

Do you have everything?
Would we ever have everything?
What is everything?
Does everything mean anything you want?
Or everything means everything includes what we don't want
Before you ask for everything
Think of what you don't want
Does God know what we don't want
or do we have to tell Him?
Does God know that everything includes what we want 
and not what we don't want?
Do we have to tell Him?
I used to tell Him a lot 
asking for what I want
until one day I asked for everything
Since that day I found that
anytime I want something
I usually get it
Is it always?
I'd like to think so
But it's always the case - so far
I don't want to be haughty and puffed up
But I believe God will give you what you want
if you ask Him
Be smart about what you ask Him
Follow your spirit
He puts it there for a reason
To serve you
What do you really want?
Or think that you want
There is a difference
The bottom line is 
If it is what you really want
then ask Him
You may be surprised that that is what He wants too
Anyhow your spirit is serving you
Use it
It can intercede for you 
when you don't know what to pray
It can muster groans, words that only He can know
It can go where you can't
In another word it can do wonder
Get in touch with that side of you
Get to know you
Anyway happy finding
That is all I'd say right now
