Matthew 7:7
Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.
An old friend.
My Mom often added the reminder, “Remember, you do not have because you do not ask,” which is another classic from the end of James 4:2. If we do not ask God for help, we miss out on an incredible resource.
In this passage in Matthew, I love that the riches of God are right there, free for the asking.
I wonder how much I have missed out on, solely because I have been preoccupied with worry or too stubborn or too ignorant to ask.
This much I know:
- I want as much of Him and his goodness as I can get
Asking
Seeking
Knocking
