Luke 11:13
"If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him?"
This verse is just what I needed today. I long to be more empowered by the Spirit. And the truth is, sometimes I just don't think it's working. But this verse is a PROMISE. It's from Jesus' own mouth. How can I question it? And that also reminds me that those I love who are seeking for faith in Jesus and the Holy Spirit will not be disappointed:
"because of his (or her) persistence he will get up and give him as much as he needs. And I say to you, ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and you shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives; and he who seeks, finds; and to him who knocks, it shall be opened." (verses 8-10)
