Seek And Find
Matthew 7:7-8 NIV: "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened."
Your quest is near the end--or so it seems. You´ve prayed and sought the Lord for His will to be done above all. At times, your journey has been tiring, causing you to wonder if you had wandered or lost track of the path you have fought to stay on. No one ever said following Jesus would be easy, you know that, of course. And now that the answer seems so near, still you have difficulty knowing His way beyond a shadow of a doubt. Perhaps your search is over. It´s time to rest. It´s time to be still and make no more requests; do not ask, do not seek, do not knock. It is time to stand at the door and simply wait for the door to open. It is then you will know. It is at that moment that you will sense God´s presence and have a peace with the answer He has already chosen to reveal to you. You have trusted Him in seeking-now trust Him in the meanwhile as you wait.
