If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?
As parents we delight in providing for our children and we especially like to give them good gifts. We protect them by withholding gifts that we know will cause them harm even if it is hard for them to understand the concept of 'NO'.
Our Heavenly Father sees his responsibility towards us even more importantly because he knows everything - the end from the beginning. He knows what will bring us harm and what will bless us. We as his children must learn to trust his wisdom and also understand the concept on 'NO'
One gift that our Father will never keep from us is the gift of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the Holy Presence of God in our lives and he gives this gift to us without limit. The Holy Spirit in our lives is the guarantee of eternal life.
May we always ask for this immeasurable gift!
