Seekers Wanted
As a child, I often played hide-n-seek.
Hide-n-seek was a favourite game to play with our own children, especially in holiday homes, with so many fun places to hide.
Turning the lights off at night and hiding in the dark was always a riot.
Remember counting to 10, then shouting βHere I come, ready or not!?β
ππππ€π’π§π to find someone in the dark with a torch light was such fun!
The word π¬πππ€ means to go in search of, try to discover, try to acquire, with energy, direction, passion, and purpose. And that was always the case with hide-n-seek!
ππππ€π’π§π implies so much more than merely looking.
ππππ€π’π§π is always more of a journey, than any single event.
And on any journey, there are always many peaks and valleys.
I encounter many in the world looking for answers to the question that Jesus asked in the New Testament, βWhat π¬πππ€ ye?β β John 1:38
How would you answer Jesusβ question?
Are you πππππππ something?
Money, wealth, a job, success, a good reputation, happiness, security, comfort?
Like many things in life, success, money, security, are fleeting, elusive, often uncertain and anything but guaranteed.
Are you scrambling in the dark?
Where are you πππππππ with your torchlight in hand?
In their response to Jesus, the disciples responded by saying they were not πππππππ something, but rather π¬π¨π¦ππ¨π§π.
They were πππππππ the Messiah.
The disciples werenβt the only π¬πππ€ππ«π¬ that day.
Jesus Christ too, was and is a π¬πππ€ππ«.
He too is looking for disciples to follow Him, two millennia ago and today.
Real happiness does not come from πππππππ things; it comes from πππππππ Jesus.
As you π¬πππ€ for Jesus Christ, youβll recognise too, that He is πππππππ you.
His light is far more powerful than your torchlight.
Daily, honest π¬πππ€ππ«π¬ of truth find an answer to the question, βWhat π¬πππ€ yeβ through missionaries from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
And you can too.
What π¬πππ€ ye?
