‘Those who find me find life, and the Lord will be pleased with them.’
-Proverbs 8:35
It is such an assertive statement. Such conviction in all it’s glory. Simply stated… If we seek Him (as we are all called to do) we will find life. As we know there is no life without Him. We are not to seek out life first. If we do we will be bounded by earthly issues and materials. However, if we seek Him first than we can see the life He has intended for us (with minimal bunts against that wall!). In turn, He will be pleased (…’the Lord will be pleased with them’) as any earthly father would be as their child excels at anything. I believe our ultimate goal is such that – to do anything and everything we can to ‘please Him’.
This verse is a perfect example of How what my friend AJ would remind me; the bible is our “Basic Instructions Before we Leave Earth”.
It’s the little things…
