If you need any help, just ask

Self-sufficiency is a wonderful quality to possess. It certainly helps to know how to maintain your vehicle, repair your plumbing, or single-handedly prepare a meal for 20 people. But for the life of me I can't name anyone I know who is capable of doing anything and everything. I prefer to know people who are good at specific tasks and seek their help when I need it. When I have confidence in their skills and experience, I can turn the job over to them knowing I can expect a positive outcome. The same is true of turning my problems and situations over to the Universe. I know that I will receive the help I need in whatever form is deemed right for the moment. My favorite form of prayer to the Universe is: "I know you never give me any more than I can handle, but right now you are really pushing it. So either ease up or give me what I need to get through this." I have never been disappointed in the results of this. There is no right or wrong way to ask for such help. You are merely acknowledging that there is something greater than yourself that is present to provide what you need. Just do it. I know that I experience a great sense of relief when I take such action. What do you need to ask for today to help a situation you are in?
