If we truly want the Lord in our life, we need to actively pursue Him.
Seeking the Lord has the effect of putting God first in our lives. In the words of Charles Stanley, having a relationship with God should be “our priority and our foremost desire”. We’re on the right track to putting God first when “we choose to obey God, follow God, and have a daily and intimate relationship with God”. We need to talk with Him, listen to Him and remain “eager to consult with Him at all times.”
Do you feel like there is something missing in your life? Are you experiencing strife in your relationships? Do you long for peace and joy? Maybe you want to find meaning in the difficult circumstances and experiences of your life. Perhaps you are seeking comfort, help, healing and restoration or you may be desiring growth, wisdom and abundant life.
If so, ask yourself if you are seeking Him with your whole heart. If you do, He has promised that you will find Him (Jeremiah 29:13).
If you’re interested in some guidance in an active pursuit of God, I am available to talk with you about getting a start on this richly rewarding journey!
“Those who seek the Lord shall not lack any good thing.” (Psalm 34:10)
