Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.

‘When you pass through the waters, I will be with you;

The one who calls you is faithful, and he will do it.

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.

‘For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord ,

The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you;

I can do all this through him who gives me strength.

‘And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him,

‘Be strong and take heart, all you who hope in the Lord .’
