Which proves my point: Your opinion won't change God's will.

It could. It shows that you accept that you need help and that you look to Him for the help. Even if he knows you need the help, simply acknowledging Him as being the one who can help you is all that matters to Him. He may be ready to help you, he's just waiting for you to show some initiative by personally speaking to Him.

How about saying: "Give me what I deserve. Your will is flawless so you know best. I fully trust your opinion." (also: Saying "You may give me what I deserve." does not make any sense. God cannot give you something that you don't deserve as that would make Him unjust)

 

Asking for help won't make you a better person. It makes you a demanding person who questions God's will. And God wouldn't want you to work against His will.

Asking for help shows that you know that God is the one who can help and it shows that you are putting forth an effort to connect with God. That effort can sometimes be the difference between deserving something & not deserving something.
