The Lord is good to those who live for Him, who fear Him, who place their hope in Him and seek Him. But how do we seek God? This search is characterised by a deep longing after God and a desire to move closer to Him, to know Him and to do that which is important to Him. It causes men and woman to shift their own interests and desires to the back so that God may be in the foreground. This search for God leads to the crucifixion of the “self” in order for God to be raised and glorified. It leads to a total surrender, trusting God to deliver us from our sinful nature while establishing a life of holiness in us. 1 Peter 1:17, Psalm 34:10-11, Lamentations 3:25, Matthew 6:33.
