Verse 3: "Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. " I 'm struggling with this due to my situation. Is asking for what one needs to physically survive asking amiss? I asked for help getting mother on a piece of land and a stranger gave me a trailer house which did, indeed, get us on the land. I asked for help slaughtering goats to put in the freezer for next year 's meat and a stranger came and did the part of all this I was physically unable to do. My trailer is old and the wiring is going bad. I 've no money for this. Is asking for help to get this fixed asking "amiss "? I truly do not know what is ok and what isn 't as I keep telling myself I 'm superwoman and can do .... when at my age I know I cannot. Thus, understanding all this is a spiritual struggle at this time.
