That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us: — Acts 17:27

God longs to be sought after by us! God left his imprint on the cosmos and then provided us with locations to look for life and significance. With this strategy, he wanted us to look for the one who was behind it all. Though he is never far from us, he longs to be sought after and discovered. When we seek after God, we are not only giving thanks to him but also carrying out the main purpose of our lives.

Prayer

Dear Heavenly Father, I long to know you more fully – as the old hymn says of Jesus: “Beyond the sacred page, I seek thee Lord. My spirit pants for thee O living Word. ” My loving Father, I pray that your presence will be discernible in my daily activities. In the same way that I am known by you, I would like to get to know you better. In the name of the Savior I pray. Amen.
