Psalm 53:2 (NIV)
God looks down from heaven on the sons of men to see if there are any who understand, any who seek God.
God scans the earth looking for people who seek Him. Does anyone seek Him and give evidence of that by living righteously? God waits for people to acknowledge their offenses and turn toward Him in repentance and to receive healing (Hosea 5:15). He invites humanity to seek for Him and emphasizes His omnipotence (all-powerful ability) as an incentive for us to respond to His invitation (Amos 5:8). Traveling through international airports recently, I watched hundreds of people moving to and fro and hurrying toward various destinations—I wondered how many had hearts moving toward God? Did they even know that He was scanning the airport for seeking hearts—to show Himself strong for them, to give them peace in the middle of hectic movement? Next week is Holy Week. Let’s start preparing our hearts now.
