With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thy commandments (Psalm 119:10)
While driving about town doing errands I was happy to read the saying on a billboard in front of a church which said, “WISE MEN STILL SEEK HIM.” Since seeing that sign last week, I’ve begun seeing that exact saying in about a third more churches in my travels. It is a very popular saying, especially at this time of the year…
Wise men and women still seek Him couldn’t be more true or profoundly on course with being one of the faithful followers. Nothing is new under the sun, as Ecclesiastes states so emphatically in chapter one…and of course it remains critical to our existence as people of faith.
The Lord desires a relationship with us, and for those who seek His face and His wisdom, the fountains of inspiration are limitless when we do so. He not only supplies provisions for our lives, but does so with unconditional love. Those who seek Him with fervent dilligence shall have rewards that will reap boundless joy.
To know Him is to know peace. He doesn’t promise there won’t be clouds in the sky, but He does promise to offer a rainbow at the end of the storm as His light shines leading the way to safe harbor.
God is not a complicated God…He is pure and simple in His approach to our hearts. His arms are open wide, His hand is extended and His love covers us with a shield of endless protection.
God is the same since the beginning of time. He is still in control. His Bible is still a way of life for those who believe, and His love is still in full force.
“Nothing new under the sun…”
Except perhaps my love for Him, which grows exponentially by the second. “I love you Father, thank You for being You!”
Oh yes, “Those who seek Him are wise indeed…”
