Today's Verse: Jeremiah 29:13 (KJV)

Saturday, May 25, 2013

And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.
— Jeremiah 29:13 (KJV)

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

God wants us to seek him. In fact, he made us to seek him! Unfortunately, however, we often seek God along with the other things that draw our eye for a moment or two. We must never let anything detract from God having first command of our heart. Only God is worthy of our full devotion.

My Prayer...

Righteous God and Holy Father, please bless me with an undivided heart, one that seeks you as the first and ordering priority of my life. Forgive me, dear Lord, for letting other things distract my focus from you and interfere with my service to your Kingdom. Fill me with a holy passion for Kingdom matters above all other concerns and interests. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
