What does Achsah’s urging reveal?

Judges 1:14 (ESV)

14 When she came to him, she urged him to ask her father for a field. And she dismounted from her donkey, and Caleb said to her, “What do you want?”

Achsah recognized the tight link between covenant blessing and the land. Thus, she was not afraid to ask her father for the land. She was not being greedy or ungrateful, but practical and trusting.
