Mark 10:29-30<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seek more of his strength! Seek more of him!\u00a0Let\u2019s always be seeking the light of his fa<\/em>ce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Psalm 105:4 TPT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Psalm 119:2<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The seeking of the kingdom of God is the chief business of the Christian life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jonathan Edwards<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bible says that we should seek God with our WHOLE heart. That implies we don’t leave anything out. We need to be all in! We should be giving God access to everything. It takes time to listen and hear the direction of God. It takes time to be in His presence. It takes faith to respond to God when He speaks. It often means sacrifice to seek God. But it is worth it! You can’t give anything to God that He won’t multiply and return to you in ways you can’t even imagine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
