2 passages

Luke 11 

9 “And so I tell you, 

keep on asking, 

and you will receive what you ask for. 

Keep on seeking, 

and you will find. 

Keep on knocking, 

and the door will be opened to you. 

10 For everyone who asks, 

receives. 

Everyone who seeks, 

finds. 

And to everyone who knocks, 

the door will be opened.

11 “You fathers:

if your children ask for a fish, do you give them a snake instead? 

12 Or if they ask for an egg, do you give them a scorpion? 

Of course not! 

13 So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, 

how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him.”

33 “No one lights a lamp and then hides it or puts it under a basket. 

Instead, 

a lamp is placed on a stand, 

where its light can be seen by all who enter the house.

34 “Your eye is like a lamp that provides light for your body. 

When your eye is healthy, 

your whole body is filled with light. 

But when it is unhealthy, 

your body is filled with darkness. 

35 Make sure that the light you think you have is not actually darkness. 

36 If you are filled with light, 

with no dark corners, 

then your whole life will be radiant, 

as though a floodlight were filling you with light.”
