Seek and you will find!
Home | A Miracle Every Day | Miracles | Seek and you will find!
Together, we’re going to (re)discover this famous passage, in which Jesus reminds us that everything is found in God:
“But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” (see the Bible, Matthew 6:33, NIV)
I invite you to ask yourself this question today: what are you seeking?
Are you seeking to…
- Build a balanced and thriving marriage,
- Raise your children so that they’ll know Jesus,
- Prosper in your professional affairs,
- Deepen your friendships,
- Support your family…?
In all, are you seeking to be happy?
All these things are legitimate, good, and approved by God: He encourages you and wants to give you access to them. In fact, His will is to be your first source of blessings.
Quite often, we think that happiness is outside of us and depends on circumstances. Deep down, we think, “Once I can access this, I will be happier…” But God wants to teach us that the only true giver of happiness is Him. That’s why we must seek Him first.
In His first sermon called “The Sermon on the Mount” (see the Bible, Matthew 5:1-48, NIV), Jesus said “blessed” nine times…the Greek word for “blessed,” “makarios,” also means “happy.” This is a state that can only be fully experienced through a deep relationship with the Creator of our souls.
You are complete in Him (see Colossians 2:10, NKJV), and in Him you live, move, and have your being (see Acts 17:28, NKJV). I invite you to seek Him passionately and let Him find you, even as we listen to this powerful song by Lauren Daigle called “First.”
And what’s interesting too is that if God invites us to seek Him first…on His side, it’s you, He seeks first.
Your daily mail always seems to know what I’m struggling with and today’s is no different. Thank you

I am here again to thank the Lord for instructing me, guiding me each day through these messages, specially when a crucial thing going on in my life, and hearing from Him is so important for me. Each day God is helping me to continue seeking Him and now He is encouraging me to let him seek me even as I seek Him.

Jesus I seek you daily through your word. As Eric so succintly stated, in Colossians 2:10, I am complete in you. Thank you Lord.
Thank you so much every time I read your message it’s a good one. Like it is just for me today in church we sang I want to know you more.Thaan I heard this song.Gods showing to seek him if I want to know him more.God bless you.
It amazes me, like I read other comments, that the message for the day is something that I truly needed to hear, difficulties I’m facing or encouragement I need. Jesus is so real, so loving, and so caring. I can face tomorrow because I know He already knows what I need and has the right plan for my life. Thank You Eric for reminding me through Jesus Christ that I have no reason to fear what tomorrow holds, just trust the One that already has my tomorrow in His hand.
