“Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.”

“Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.”
The whole heart of it lives in a single verse. Follow the three movements of Matthew 7:7, like a sunrise coming up over the sea.
Every good thing begins with a request. Asking is the courage to bring what you need to the One who can meet it, in prayer, in honesty, in hope. Like the first light over the water, it is where the day, and the answer, begins.
To seek is to keep looking when the horizon is wide and the answer is not yet in sight. It is a pursuit, a setting out. Those who search with a whole heart are promised they will find what they are looking for.
Knocking is perseverance, the patient, hopeful return to a door not yet open. And the promise is sure: to the one who keeps knocking, it will be opened. The light breaks through.
“For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.”Matthew 7:8
A little corner of calm, and a reminder of what is true.
Every morning is mercy. Whatever yesterday held, the light comes up again over the water.
Come to the shore and breathe. There is rest here for the weary and heavy-laden.
The promise of the verse is not maybe. To the one who asks, seeks, and knocks, the answer comes.
“Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.” · Matthew 7:7
A.S.K. Matt 7:7 was founded by Sylvia Hyatt-Gary, a woman of faith who built this little place around three words that changed how she prays and how she hopes: Ask, Seek, Knock. The name says it plainly, A.S.K., and the “77” points home to Matthew 7:7.
The heart of it is simple: to offer a moment of peace, a word of encouragement, and a reminder that the door is meant to be knocked on, and that it opens.
