Ask, Search, Knock

 

Matthew 7:7-12 (New International Reader's Version)

 

7 "Ask, and it will be given to you.  Search, and you will find.  Knock, and the door will be opened to you.  8 Everyone who asks will receive.  He who searches will find.  The door will be opened to the one who knocks.

9 "Suppose your son asks for bread.  Which of you will give him a stone?  10 Or suppose he asks for a fish.  Which of you will give him a snake?  11 Even though you are evil, you know how to give good gifts to your children.  How much more will your Father who is in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!

12 "In everything, do to others what you would want them to do to you.  This is what is written in the Law and in the Prophets.
