If You Seek, You Will Find

Five Minute Friday - Look

But if from there you seek the Lord your God, you will find him if you look for him with all your heart and with all your soul," Deuteronomy 4:29.

How often, as we go through a day dealing with its troubles and trials, do we actually look for God with all of our heart and soul?  When the car won't start, or we spill a bottle of cooking oil on the floor, or an unexpected bill arrives, or we're sick and there's no way we can spend the day in bed?

In Deuteronomy 4, God promises us we will find Him if we seek Him with all our heart and soul.

How do we seek Him with all our heart and soul?  I don't think I have the answer to that.

Does it mean a second by second communication with Him?  Does it mean long periods of time in prayer and meditation?  How can we do more than just fit God into the small spaces of time we allow Him?

Time's up.  While writing, I brought up questions I need to find the answers to.  I need to think on this for a while to see what God will show me.  What does seeking God with all your heart and soul mean to you?
