Dear Friend in the Lord,
“God’s Goodness” – Faith: In today’s Gospel, Jesus proclaims to His disciples that when we “ask, search and knock on the door of what is good”, God our Father will surely give us what we pray for. Ponder on, “What is good for us, must also be good for our future, and help us towards our Eternal Salvation. Thus, trust in God’s Love to give us the “best” of what we truly need.”
Fr Philip Heng, S.J.
Luke 11:9-13
Jesus said to his disciples: ‘So I say to you: Ask, and it will be given to you; search, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; everyone who searches finds; everyone who knocks will have the door opened.
‘What father among you, if his son asked for a fish, would hand him a snake? Or if he asked for an egg, hand him a scorpion? If you then, evil as you are, know how to give your children what is good, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!’
