Awakening Spark

Just came to me suddenly, a viewpoint to look at these 3 quotes from the Bible:
-'Ask and you shall receive'

-'Seek and you will find'

-'Knock and the door will be opened'

All 3 do share a common concept if perceived from another angle:
-Ask the question, and you shall receive the answer

-Seek the answer, and you'll find it(the answer)

-Knock and the door will be opened(answered)

Yeap, you'd have guessed my viewpoint- what's common isn't the 'objective' per se, be it the physical, intellectual or spiritual aspects in which we seek in prayer and out. Simply, it comes down to an 'answer'.

"Experts have maintained for more than 25 years that we speak to ourselves at a rate of more than 10,000 words per minute."- not always true, but amidst all the self-talk, there'll bound to be questions we pose to ourselves during certain occasions.

Point here is:
1. Asking the right question
2. Seeking the right answer
3. Knocking the right door

Ask, Seek, Knock- but don't get carried away by the pursuits alone, Luke 12:31- "But seek the kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added to you".
