WITH ALL YOUR HEART

Deuteronomy 4:29 (KJV)  But if from thence thou shalt seek the LORD thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul.

When we are aligned with His will, our Father wants to give us our heart´s desires—in His time. As we learn to enjoy Him for who He is, our self-focused wants are replaced by His perfect will and purpose for us.

Deuteronomy 4:29 📖 People long to be understood. We appear to have many acquaintances, but we all have a deep need to feel truly known by those we love most. This is because we were created in God´s image—He is a relational being who desires for His children to know and understand Him.

Just as you don´t want to be known for only the superficial details of who you appear to be, it´s not enough to simply know about the Lord. He wants us to learn how He thinks and feels, what´s important to Him, and what His purposes are. Of course, it´s impossible for man to completely know the mind of the Creator of the universe. Isaiah 55:9 tells us, ´As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts.´ The depth and breadth of His mind are far too great for us to grasp fully. However, we can better understand God´s heart and character by seeking Him and learning daily from His Word. If we truly desire to walk in His ways, we must first genuinely know Him. We come to know our friends better by sharing more experiences together. Similarly, we will also understand God better the longer we walk with Him and meditate on what He has revealed about Himself in the Bible.
