Advent 2019 - Day 13

READ Deuteronomy 4:29-31

But from there, you will search for the Lord your God, and you will find him when you seek him with all your heart and all your soul. When you are in distress and all these things have happened to you, in the future you will return to the Lord your God and obey him. He will not leave you, destroy you, or forget the covenant with your fathers that he swore to them by oath, because the Lord your God is a compassionate God.

God’s mercy is unending. Even when we choose everything besides Him, He will still welcome us back. But God doesn’t want us to go through the motions when we look for Him. We need to search for Him with ALL our heart and ALL our soul. 

In other words, we need to seek God with EVERYTHING that we have. He needs to be our top priority above everything else. God is merciful and He will not leave you, forget about you, or the promises He has made. That is the promise of God’s mercy. And He delivered on that promise with Jesus.

REFLECT:
​
Have you made other things more important than God?

What do you need to change to seek God with ALL your heart and ALL your soul?
