Jesus says to ask and you will receive…He says to seek and you will find…and He says to those who knock the door will be open.
He then goes on to say if a father knows how to give good gifts to his son, how much more will your Heavenly Father give you what you need? A father is not going to gift his son a rock or a scorpion if his son asks for bread or fish. Then Jesus says so in everything, do to others as you would have them do to you because this sums up the law and the prophets.
Basically, Jesus knew that if we were worried about making sure we had our needs we would never do to someone else what we would want someone to do for us. We would never give generously…we would never act selflessly…we would never lift up another because we would be too focused on meeting our own needs. Jesus reminds us that God is MORE THAN CAPABLE of providing your needs…and HE WILL! So ask Him, and then trust you can love one another because He is taking care of your needs.
