Did you ever have a kid in your neighborhood that when playing
hide and seek just hid to good, everyone else was found but this kid would not
come out, soon everyone starting looking, then kids got bored, then mad, and
finally went home? I heard a story of an old man sitting on his porch watching
such and event occur, the kid was actually hiding under a pile of leaves in his
front yard. The old man said at one point he thought about going over and
lighting the leaves on fire to get the kid to come out, but decided instead to
simply yell, "Get Found Kid!"
We too, are often like that, we hide from God by being
distracted, busy, tired, __________, (that was for you to fill in your own
excuse) These things can unintentionally become our 'pile of leaves'
I have strayed like a lost sheep. Seek your servant, for I
have not forgotten your commands ~ Psalm 119:176 ~
Are you playing hide and seek with
God?
Get Found Kid! Get
Found!
Get rid of the leaves!
Make the necessary sacrifices and spend time alone
with God in prayer.
May the grace of the Lord Jesus be with you always and to the
only wise God be glory forever through Jesus Christ! Amen.
