Solace

"Then you will call upon me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart. I will be found by you declares the Lord...."

Solace. There is such relationship in this passage. "Come to me and I will draw near to you."

I feel like Isaiah in chapter 6, realizing that my perspectives got all twisted up, and having them reset by the awareness of God's presence. It's not like I have to call God, risk interuppting him and feeling like I'm an inconvenience on his time, but rather, he waits patiently for me to call on him, come to him, pray to him, seek him, search for him....then find him.

Such a organic relationship. Beautiful isn't it.

good word Jay. He listens, He pursues, He loves, He gives, He waits; He fills us to full satisfaction. I need to find Him afresh in joy and laughter this week. Was thinking of you today and how God put you in my life during college and used our friendship to fill days of sorrow with laughter. thank you. you and judy are prayed for and missed today and always. Keep drinking deep of the Living Water.
