Seek the Lord while He may be found; call upon Him while He is near. Let the wicked forsake his way and the unrighteous man his thoughts; and let him return to the Lord, and He will have compassion on him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon. Isaiah 55:6-7
While he may be found. This puts the fear of God in me. What if I neglect God's word? What if I neglect to seek Him? I think I always count on His patience, mercy and grace. I count on it so much that I take advantage of it. Lord, please keep your words and the fear of you before my eyes so that I wont neglect your word.
You give me all I need for today. You provide all I need for life. You gave the Israelites Manna and only allowed them to gather enough for that day. In the same way you want me to gather spiritual food from your word DAILY. You don't want me to try and live my life on the crumbs of yesterday. Of course the truths I learned yesterday will still apply today and I should keep your word in my heart. I must however never believe that I have enough or know enough of you. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness for they will be filled.
