I love those who love me, and those who seek me find me. 

Proverbs 8:17

My girls loved playing hide and seek when they were younger. The thrill of finding the perfect hiding sport with the hope of outsmarting the seeker created a fun game for the whole family. Hide and Seek may be a fun game to play with family or friends, but we can never play it with God. 

He is never hiding from us. He is always there when we seek Him. In fact, if we were honest with ourselves, there may be times we are the ones trying to hide from God. 

Scripture tells us that God is always there for us because He loves us. He desires a close relationship with us. “If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land” (2 Chronicles 7:14). 

Let’s not play games with God. 

Give Him your whole heart and you will be the “winner” every time. 

Dear God Almighty, 

Thank You for always being available when I need You. Please forgive me when I try to hide my sin from You. I love you and I need You.
