Jeremiah 29:13 NKJV
“You will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.”
With simplicity and strength, today’s Bible verse reminds us about the greatest love we can experience – God’s love. His promise states that when we seek Him with all our hearts, we will surely find Him.
Imagine you are writing a heartfelt letter to someone you love, expressing all your feelings and dreams. You cannot wait for their reply because you sense the bond and feel understood. As you put down the pen, you realize that God is like that empathetic friend or loving partner who receives and replies to your letters with both love and compassion.
Seeking God involves the act of setting aside distractions and sending that “letter” to Him every day through prayer, worship, and diving into His Word. The best part? You don’t have to wait long for an answer. God’s presence, peace, and direction are there with you the moment you open your heart.
Many times, our relationships with others come with love that includes certain conditions or some form of expectation. But God’s love is really quite different. It is steady and unchanging. What He promises through Jeremiah 29:13 to those who seek Him is that He is always close to us. The commitment shown in our pursuit of Him provides an expression of the depth of our love and faith in Him.
Prayer: Dear God, You are the greatest source of love. Help me to seek You every day with all my heart, trusting in Your promises and cherishing Your presence in my life. Amen.
