How to be or become a follower of Jesus Christ in the world and in your situation«And I tell you, ask and you will receive; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.
For everyone who asks, receives; and the one who seeks, finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.»
Who among us Christians has never prayed to ask Our Lord for a grace or help, or some healing from an illness or maybe something else that was important to us? And when we didn't get what we asked for, did we ever wonder why?
Well, in this passage I really believe that Jesus teaches us how to pray to get what we ask him.
At that time, Jesus said to his disciples: knock and it will be opened to you
The main thing to care for, is friendship. It can also happen that the character or the circumstances of life do not allow you to have an assiduous relationship with your friends, but usually true friends go together, you relate with them, you go to see them, you pay visit to them and their family. Among friends, we also help each other in difficult moments.
Despite this, the friend in the parable initially refuses to grant the request of the other, then in the end, due to the insistence of the latter - perhaps to get him out of the way and stop being annoyed - gives him what he asks for.
So what we learn from the parable is simple enough to understand
The friendship relationship must be such that your friend is always available listening to you. If the person in the parable had asked anyone else, maybe he would have had a bucket of water over his head from the window.
Usually, you don't ask something of someone you don't know well enough and aren't confident.
Perseverance, insistence on asking without getting tired are however essential for your friend to pay attention to you and to hear you.
The object of the request, which here is some bread, that is, something that actually serves, a good thing that really those who ask for it need. If the object of the request should have been poison, to be used to Kill the visitor, or something harmful, obviously it would have been useless to insist.
By examining what we learn from the parable, we try to apply it to the relationship between us and God, between us and Jesus Christ, between us and the Virgin Mary, between us and our Guardian Angel. With them we must have a true relationship of friendship and confidence.
We had to attend them, and talk to them, leading an intense spiritual life, that is, knowing that we are in HIS PRESENCE IN EVERY MOMENT OF OUR DAYS. Among some other comments in this section I have written about this in enough detail and therefore I would not want to repeat it here.
Instead, I would like to say something more about prayer. Of this powerful tool, which is the means to communicate with God, the Holy Virgin, our Guardian Angel and the saints, we can find many definitions everywhere, even on the web.. 
My Lord what do you want
from me?
Among all the aspects and ways of praying, I would like to emphasize first of all the praise and gratitude we owe to God, the declaration of love for Him, the availability to His decisions, and finally possibly also the request for some grace, perhaps even asking for the intercession of the Virgin, of a saint or, for everyday things, of our Guardian Angel.
Perseverance in praying is essential, we must never get tired, and above all we have not be surprised if we do not get immediately what we ask for, or we do not realize that we have already obtained it, or if we shall not get it at all.
God sees and knows infinitely everywhere and everything, and if we do not get something, it does mean that it would hurt us or others and for that it's not for our good.
RATHER LET US ASK WHAT HE DOES WANT FROM US
Don't worry ! the mercy of Jesus
is INFINITE
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke 11,5-13.
Jesus said to his disciples: "Suppose one of you has a friend to whom he goes at midnight and says, 'Friend, lend me three loaves of bread,
for a friend of mine has arrived at my house from a journey and I have nothing to offer him,'
and he says in reply from within, 'Do not bother me; the door has already been locked and my children and I are already in bed. I cannot get up to give you anything.'
I tell you, if he does not get up to give him the loaves because of their friendship, he will get up to give him whatever he needs because of his persistence.
And I tell you, ask and you will receive; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.
For everyone who asks, receives; and the one who seeks, finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.
What father among you would hand his son a snake when he asks for a fish?
Or hand him a scorpion when he asks for an egg?
If you then, who are wicked, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?"
