Hide & Seek or Seek & Find?

You know what the oldest game in the world is?  It's "Hide & Seek!"  Adam and Eve were the 1st to play the game.  They tried to hide from God.  People are still playing that game today...trying to hide (their sins) from God.

My son, when he was a toddler, would cover his eyes--then say, "You can't see me!"  He thought that if he couldn't see you--you couldn't see him.  Isn't that what people try to do....ignore their sins, excuse their sins, justifying their sins; therefore, they won't look God in the face--realizing they've been caught?

We need to put 1st things 1st:  "Seek ye 1st the Kingdom of God, and His righteousness--then all these things will be added unto you."  SEEK means to try to find; search for; aim at--but we tend to LUST after things rather than seek after righteousness.

Romans 14:17 says, "The kingdom of God is not meat nor drink, but righteousness, peace, and joy."   Lust means to "delight the senses" (bodily appetites; sexual desires; any thing in excess).

The Wise men sought after the Son of God (baby Jesus); if we're wise, we'll seek after Him, too!
