A Daily Devotion for Weds, November 4

Proverbs 20: 5,7

verse 5: The purposes of a man’s heart are deep waters, but a man of understanding draws them out.

We were created with hearts that seek God. This fact is central to my faith. Every fiber of my being has wanted to know God for as long as I can remember. I am not saying I have always been faithful in my seeking Him, but my purpose has always been to find Him, to see Him, and to know Him. I believe God created us all with this purpose. Sometimes I feel frustrated by how difficult this process can be, and I wonder why God hasn’t made it easier. But then I remember He made it as simple as sending Jesus, and as simple as asking me to say, “I believe”, and as simple as promising I will spend eternity with Him. I can always go back and start there.

Father God, you have called me to seek you and to follow you. I want to know you better. Give me wisdom, God, and I will try to do the right thing. I know I am yours. Amen
