Hide-and-Seek

And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.

Jeremiah 29:13

If you think hide-and-seek is a game only for youngsters, think again. Nearly fifteen hundred people in China set the record for the largest game of hide-and-seek in history. Elsewhere in Asia, the Japan Hide-and-Seek Association regularly holds games in interesting locations.

If we truly seek God, we will find Him, for He doesn’t hide from those who long to know Him. Deuteronomy 4:29 says, “You will seek the Lord your God, and you will find Him if you seek Him with all your heart and with all your soul.”

One of the ways He makes Himself known is through His creation. When we see the majesty of God’s works all around us, it helps us grasp His grandeur. “The heavens declare the glory of God” (Psalm 19:1). Spend some time today in quiet contemplation and prayer, observing the majesty of His creation around you, and give thanks that He gives us the opportunity to seek and find Him.

I sing the mighty power of God that made the mountains rise; that spread the flowing seas abroad and built the lofty skies.

Isaac Watts

We cannot hide from God. God does not hide from us. If we pursue a true and intimate relationship with our Creator and Savior, the giver of eternal life, He will draw close to us! His Word is perfect and true and will guide us in every part of our lives.

Love God. Love others.
