Give me the Springs as Well as the Land

I have contemplated for years on the event where Caleb's daughter asks for springs to go with the land. Why does God record that incident twice for us?

Well, first of all, I think it is his encouraging us to ask, to keep on asking, to not stop with a little, to ask for more.

Secondly, it is an example of a girl following in her father's footsteps. Caleb was asking for territory to conquer when he was eighty. And here is his daughter asking for the land with the springs. Caleb had passed on his faith.

God, help our family to be like Caleb's family.
