“But from there you will seek the Lord your God, and you will find Him if you search for Him with all your heart and all your soul.”  Deuteronomy 4:29
 
I love going to the beach. It doesn’t matter what time of year; the sandy beach is my favorite place to be. One of the things that my wife, Mary Ann and I love to do is look for dolphins from the deck of our condo. Sitting there early in the morning with a cup of coffee, watching the ocean waves is so peaceful.

We don’t see the dolphins every time. Some days we don't see any signs of them but we know they are out there. Sometimes, it might be because we are looking in the wrong direction. Other times, we might be only half paying attention and we miss them even though they were right in front of us.

I wonder it that is how it is with God at times. We know He is out there, but we don’t always see Him. Maybe we are going about our day, not paying enough attention and we miss Him.  Maybe we are too busy scrolling on our phones or computers to notice God moving right in front of us.

But God promises to draw close to us when we draw near to him. He promises we will find Him when we seek him with all our hearts.

I encourage you, don’t give up looking for the Lord. look for Him today. He is waiting for you!
