Isaiah 26:4-10 and Deuteronomy 6:4-6
“All night long I search for You; in the morning I earnestly seek for God.” Have you ever been on a Snipe hunt? What a thrilling event! There is nothing like going into the woods at night to catch the elusive Snipe, armed with nothing but a grocery sack and your wits. To catch a Snipe, you have to be quick. You also have to be good at calling one to you, like a turkey hunter would call a turkey. But instead of gobbling, you simply call out “snipe.” Usually the higher-pitched voice you use, the better! Of all the times I’ve ever gone Snipe hunting, I’ve never caught one. I’ve come close a few times, but they always get away. This is probably why you don’t see stuffed Snipes hanging on walls or proudly displayed in homes. They are elusive!
Unlike a Snipe, God is not elusive. When we seek Him, He answers us! Each time I look for God, I find Him. That’s a better percentage than anything else I do in life.
Read: Isaiah 26:4-10. Now read Deuteronomy 6:4-6.
Pray: Thank God for his love and kindness. Thank Him for being closer than any friend. Ask Him to teach you how to seek Him in every area of your life.
Do: Meditate on these passages today as you seek God.
