Today is National "Scavenger Hunt Day". I like a good scavenger hunt. When we took the youth groups camping, there was usually part of one day spent on a scavenger hunt. It was always fun to walk the campgrounds and find small, intricate things for the others to diligently search for.
It seems that we are always searching for something: ways to lose weight, ways to get into better shape, ways to better communicate, the best prices on whatever we are looking for, etc. We are always seeking for something.
Today's word is Proverbs 8:17, ESV, which reads, "I love those who love Me, and those who seek Me diligently find Me."
Have you sought GOD the way you search for so many other things? I ask myself that question today: "Have I sought GOD as much as I have searched for things that don't really matter?" GOD isn't hard to find; He is right where we left Him. However, I think that we often are so engrossed in searching for everything else that we find it difficult to find GOD. And, it probably is, considering some of the things we search for.
I want to find what GOD wants me to do - every hour of every day of my life. I want to be whatever He wants me to be. I want to seek and do His good will. He tells us that if we diligently seek Him, we will find Him. Come join me on this great scavenger hunt.
Be Blessed,
Mickey T
