For the Love - Day 6 — JC's Village

If you're looking for something - how hard do you look?

My mom used to always tell me - "Look with your hands - not just your eyes!" She had a point - often what I was looking for was just under something else - or behind it.

This verse - like some of the others we'll cover this Lent - doesn't necessarily use the word love - but does imply a level of love that's inspiring.

Have you ever torn your room apart looking for something? Or your car? Or your whole house? How much would you have to want something to look all over town - or all over your whole state? What would you want so badly that you'd search all over the whole country for it?

God declares here that He's constantly searching the whole earth - looking back and forth - to and fro - for someone who's heart He can support -- not just any old support - but strongly. If God's strongly supporting you - what else could you possibly need?!

How do we make our hearts completely His though? Well - how about for starters - tell Him. Tell Him that you're volunteering. Tell Him that He has your heart. However much we might search for Him - it is but an echo of how He's searching for us.

Try it.

See what happens.

I dare you.
