seeking

I've had a couple posts about seeking........ first about seeking God's face, and more recently on seeking the ancient paths. Seeking is an active thing. Yet, even though we desire these things, we tend to treat them passively rather than actively pursueing them...... and then wonder why we do not find them. When scripture says seek......... it means seek.

Also, maybe part of the blessing of these things lies in the act of seeking them....... we are blessed by the seeking in itself.

LORD, when I say I want to seek you, seek your face, seek the ancient paths........ help this not to be just words....... but help me to seek with my whole heart and will and actions.
