It's All in The 'Tude- Connecting with God

The first situation that I want to talk about is how our attitude when we spend time with God can affect how we perceive who he is, and what he has in store for us. The Bible mentions time and time again that we need to be actively seeking God.  Deuteronomy 4:29 says, "But from there you will seek the Lord your God and you will find Him, if you search after him with all your heart and with all your soul." The important thing to remember is that when we are seeking God is that we have to truly be seeking Him with all of our heart and soul. God doesn't want you to only seek Him half heartily, but he wants you to be pursuing Him with all that you have. For it is when you are all in, then you can truly discover who God is, and what he has to say about you. Proverbs 8:17 says, "I love those who love me, and those who seek me diligently find me." I know that last week, I focused on working diligently in all that we do, no matter how boring. Trust me, there will be times when there are other things that we so much would rather be doing than just reading the Bible or praying, and God understands because he knows the sin in our hearts, but he enjoys it when you make time for Him personally. When you take the time to get to know Him, you learn things about Him that you might not have known before, and you learn things about who you are. Many of us, including me have questions about what our future holds, and we can catch a glimpse at our future when we take the time to connect with God so that he may show you. You just have to go into every time that you connect with God with an attitude of wanting to actively seek Him, an attitude that is willing to spend time with Him, and a attitude that will delight in who he is, and what he has in store for you.  

Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank you for being so patient with me, and how I so often give you only the scraps of my time. I pray that I will go into each time that I spend with you with an attitude of one who is actively seeking you, and and attitude of one who truly wants to know you with all my heart and soul. Amen.
