Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

The more we can get to grips with what God has inspired people to write, the more we get to grips with God’s will.

God chose the right people to write the scriptures. He did not choose the ultimate scholars because people like me would struggle to read the bible.

He did not choose philosophers who knew people intimately because that would worry people like me.

Instead He chose ordinary people to explain in ordinary ways His will and His ways as best they could.

Song of Solomon 3:1 By night on my bed I sought the one I love; I sought him, but I did not find him.

Unless we meet with Christ we will constantly be seeking something in our lives and we may not even understand what we are looking for.

When you are away from the one you love you are constantly thinking of them and longing for the time when you can be together again.

That is the love we should display for our Lord and God. His love for us meant He did not leave us alone but rose from the dead and gave us direction and support.

Seek everything by seeking God just as He came looking for you in the beginning.

John 20:16 Jesus said to her, “Mary!” She turned and said to Him, “Rabboni!” (which is to say, Teacher).

Jesus came into this world to seek and save the lost. He did not come into the world to confuse us and to cause chaos.

And yet so many people try to tell stories that confuse and cause Chaos just so that they can feel better in themselves in some manner.

Mary needed to weep and mourn to get over the feelings and grief she was going through and Jesus knew that. He stopped and waited until the time was right.

Then without hesitation he stepped up to the mark and changed the world for Mary. He can do the same for you too if you are patient.
