“And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.”~ Jer. 29:13
I told my son Andrew recently, “I know of no one who took their life with God more seriously than his mother. The most serious thing a person will ever do is to not take God seriously. Whenever we start taking God seriously, it is then, and then only, He will take us seriously!
We waste our time praying with “feigned lips.” That is, play acting. And a casual looking for Him will profit us nothing. It is when we seek for Him with “all [our] heart,” that the promise is fulfilled, and we will find Him.
It is not a convenient thing to rise at night and go through the dark streets, seeking at every turn and inquiring of every soul, “Saw ye Him whom my soul loveth? But it is this searching and longing soul, who alone can joyfully testify, “I found Him whom my soul loveth: I held Him, and would not let Him go.”
We need to be like the little boy who said in prayer, “I ain’t kiddin’ Lord, I mean it.” And by the way, God knows when we do!
