Keep Asking, Searching, Knocking

“Keep asking,[a](A) and it will be given to you.(B) Keep searching,[b] and you will find. Keep knocking,[c] and the door[d] will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who searches finds,(C) and to the one who knocks, the door[e] will be opened. What man among you, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone? 10 Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? 11 If you then, who are evil,(D) know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!

For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
