Quotes about Seeking

Jesus said in Matthew 6:33, "Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you." The way of the world is to go about and grab everything in sight.

That saves a lot of worry if you know that God is the One doing the adding.

- Louie Giglio
I no longer seek the presence of Jesus. I seek the person of Jesus. I'm not after the presence of the Holy Spirit. I want the person of the Holy Spirit and His power. I'm not calling on the presence of God. I have God (Father, Son, and Spirit) living in me.
- Louie Giglio
He wrote as a young man that God's noblest gift was the gift of an inquiring mind.
- John Adams
Lord, I want to know You the best a man can know You. I want to please You the best a man can please You. Show me Your heart, reveal to me what is important to You, and show me what is not so important to You. Teach me Your ways and may my life bring joy to You...
