I am in search of the perfect pair of heels for the holiday. I really want a silver pair that I found on Amazon. I am going to be wearing a navy blue dress and I thought silver would be perfect for a winter wonderland themed party we are having.
However, it is very difficult to buy shoes online when you have not tried them on and have no clue if they will fit. I mean who wants to go through the hassle of return shipping anyway? So I will keep looking for the perfect pair until they magically appear.
This got me to thinking that we search high and low for everything we need and want (I do not need a pair for silver pumps) but we do not take the time to search for something (someone) that does not take much effort to find. I am talking about the LORD.
He is in every book of the Bible, in 1191 chapters (interesting tidbit of info; if you take 1191 and read it upside down, it is 1611. really cool how GOD put the same number of chapters in His word as the year that our first English translation would appear on the scene) and on every page. It really does not take much to find GOD, if you are searching. I am thankful that I can find GOD in the same spot every day when I read my Bible. I can find GOD in the same spot every Sunday no matter what pew I happen to sit in. HE is everywhere and His word says that I will find Him if I seek Him with all my heart.
Am I seeking GOD as much or as hard as I am seeking after those perfect silver pumps? Wow, that is humbling. I better make sure that I am not seeking anything or anyone above Him because His word also tells us to seek Him while he may be found. There will come a day when all of man's finding of GOD ends. I am glad that I have already found Him and that I can not ever lose Him.
What are you seeking this holiday season? I hope that it is in the LORD.
