When you are seeking something you are looking for it. Not just casually, you look for it pretty hard hoping to find it.
You put forth effort to find something you have lost or misplaced. You search in various places lifting things up to see if its under there and you go through things to try and find what you are seeking or searching for. When children play hide and go seek they really try to find that person.
In God's word it says to seek the Lord: Do it with all your heart. "but if from thence thou shalt seek the Lord thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou shalt seek him with all thy heart and soul." Duet. 4:29 "Now set your heart and soul to seek the Lord your God..." 1 Chron. 22:19 "...if thou seek him, he will be found of thee; but if thou forsake him, he will cast thee off forever." 1 Chron. 28:9
"The Lord looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand and seek God." Psalm 14:2
"Seek the Lord while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near;" Isaiah 55:6
There are many scriptures in the bible about seeking the Lord. When we seek Him with all our heart, He will be found. And what a blessing when you are looking so hard for something and then you find it. You are so glad that you kept on looking for it and so happy that you found it, aren't you? God's promises are true, so when the Lord says He will be found, you will find Him.
