I just finished a two-hour conversation and walked away without an answer. How frustrating!  No matter how hard we try, sometimes we’re not going to get answers.

Jesus said in Matthew 7:7. “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.”

Very seldom did Jesus answer a question outright, but He does encourage us to seek answers.

Here are some tactics to hopefully gain answers:

  • Make sure your questions are clear.
  • Start with simple questions.
  • Practice positive body language.
  • Clarify why you need to have an answer. And
  • Ask why they’re unable to answer your questions.

Finally, just by asking the question and not receiving an answer, this may tell you everything you really need to know.
