These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Deuteronomy 6:6-7

Ask the Lord specific questions so you'll recongnize his voice when he specificallly answers you.  If you don't take the time to talk to him, FOR REAL, how will you ever know if he's answering you.  When we speak to each other, we don't talke in vague generalities.  Can you imagine calling your best friends to invite them on vacation with your family and say something like...."Hi friend, thank you for your friendship, you're a great person, you do many wonderful things, I wish we could get together sometime, goodbye."
 If I want to know if they can come with my family, I'm going to say something like..." Hi friend, Guess what!  We're going to South Carolina in July, the week of the fourth, can you and your family join us?"

Get to the point.  They can then get to the point of answering with an affirmative or negative. 
Talk, ask, be specific, and then....listen!
