Turning our Hearts and Minds to the Lord

Let us turn our hearts and minds to the Lord, seeking His wisdom and guidance in this moment.

Psalm 63:1-2 tells us, "O God, you are my God; I earnestly search for you. My soul thirsts for you; my whole body longs for you in this parched and weary land where there is no water."

Oh, how true this verse is for our weary souls in this world. The world can offer us temporary comfort and satisfaction, but it is only through seeking the Lord that we will truly find rest and satisfaction.

But seeking the Lord is not a passive task. It requires us to actively search for Him with all our hearts, minds, and strength. It requires us to long for Him, to thirst for Him, and to never let our hearts grow content with anything less than His presence.

Psalm 27:4 says, "One thing I ask from the Lord, this only do I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in his temple."

Do we have this same longing? Do we seek the Lord with this same intensity and urgency?

Let us turn our hearts towards the Lord today and seek His presence in all things. Let us seek His wisdom, His guidance, and His comfort. Let us allow His love to fill us and overflow from us to a world in desperate need of His love and grace.
