Matthew 7:7-11 (New Living Translation)
View In My Bible
7
"Keep on asking, and you will be given what you ask for. Keep on looking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened.
8
For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks, finds. And the door is opened to everyone who knocks.
9
You parents -- if your children ask for a loaf of bread, do you give them a stone instead?
10
Or if they ask for a fish, do you give them a snake? Of course not!
11
If you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give good gifts to those who ask him.
