From The Friars (catholic Christian Spirituality)

"Since God desires above all else to shower his blessings on us, have a confident faith in all your petitions that he will give you what you ask. Do not ask for things without God’s prompting. He is more ready to answer than we are to ask, but he waits for us to ask. We should be moved to such prayer by the will of God who wants to give, rather than by our own need to ask..." Saint Paschal Baylon. Podcast by Fr. Luke Mary Fletcher, CFR.
