Then he said to them. "suppose one of you has a friend , and he goes to him at midnight and says, 'Friend, lend me three loaves of bread, because a friend of mine on journey has come to me, and I have nothing to set before him.'

Then the one inside answers, 'Don't bother me.  The door is already locked, and my children are with me in bed.  I can't get up and give you anything.' I tell you, though he will not get up and give you the bread because he is his friend, yet because of the man's boldness he will get up and give him as much as he needs.

So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.  For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.

"Which of you fathers, if your son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead? Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? If you then, theough 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!"

You might want to start out with Luke 11:1 for an added bonus to this as well.

In the bible i have it says your son asks for some bread and you give a stone instead. ( i don't remember the rest ) but that was in Matthew, is it different in Luke?
