Day 351 - Seeking

"I will seek the Lord."

The search of man is for God. We grope and reach as in darkness, blind poor and needy. The questions plague us and we try to understand the incomprehensible. 

Then the light breaks through the darkness as the glorious light of the gospel shines on our hearts. The veil of separation is torn and the way opened to us. Our search has drawn us to Him. We have found Him, or more accurately, have been found by Him. 

Our search has changed. We know the Who and that has given us the why of life. We search for our unique purpose and our place in the body of Christ. We search for the will of God. We search for the leading of the Lord. 

Where do we search? If we look to circumstances they will lead us astray. They often are very contrary to God. So we look past these. We look to God the way He has opened for us through prayer, the Word and our times with God in praise. God will lead and He knows how to get our attention. He speaks our language and knows how to communicate His will and way to us. 

Never give up the search. There is always more. God is bigger and we are growing in our wisdom and knowledge of Him. The more we know the more we realize how little we know. So we press on each and every day in the search. 

Is there any other way to search for God that we didn't list here? What do you do when you find the will of God?
