Luke 11:14

"If you then, being evil, 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?”"

Key Reflection

This verse contrasts human and divine giving, suggesting that even flawed humans can give good things; thus, a perfect and loving Heavenly Father will abundantly provide the Holy Spirit, the ultimate gift, to those who ask. It emphasizes God's superior generosity and grace compared to our limited capacities.
