This is what we have heard:
Now Jesus was praying in a certain place, and when he finished, one of his disciples said to him, "Lord, teach us to pray, as John taught his disciples." -Luke 11:1
After telling the prayer, the Lord said :
And he said to them, "Which of you who has a friend will go to him at midnight and say to him, 'Friend, lend me three loaves, -Luke 11:5
for a friend of mine has arrived on a journey, and I have nothing to set before him'; -Luke 11:6
and he will answer from within, 'Do not bother me; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed. I cannot get up and give you anything'? -Luke 11:7
I tell you, though he will not get up and give him anything because he is his friend, yet because of his impudence he will rise and give him whatever he needs. -Luke 11:8
And I tell you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. -Luke 11:9
For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened. -Luke 11:10
What father among you, if his son asks for a fish, will instead of a fish give him a serpent; -Luke 11:11
or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? -Luke 11:12
If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!" -Luke 11:13
What is the Lord trying to tell us through this parable?
For He said,”I TELL you, though he will not ....give him anything, yet because of his impudence ...give him whatever he needs. -Luke 11:8
And again we heard,”And I TELL you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. -Luke 11:9
Yes,we are told, but do we understand? Don’t we have more questions than answers ?
What actually the Lord is trying to tell us to ask ? What actually the Lord is trying to tell us what will be given to us ?
What actually the Lord is trying to tell us to seek ?
What actually the Lord is trying to tell us to find ?
What actually the Lord is trying to tell us to knock ?
What actually the Lord is trying to tell us to be opened ?
If what we have asked, already given. Why we need to seek ? What else that we need to find ? Why we have to knock ? What still can be opened ?
