We are people that are always searching- we lost our keys and we need to find them, we were laid off and need a new job, so we search for one. We are tired of being alone and so we seek out relationship with others. We feel something is missing and begin to seek answers to life's most complicated questions.

The material things, the things we lose on a day to day basis we eventually find them, the job we seek out we eventually get, and the relationships we seek when feeling alone we eventually have. But what about the things that we seek answers to our day to day lives just can't answer? That our friends can't answer?

Matthew 7:7 Christ tells us that if we ask it will be given to us; if we seek we will find and if we knock the door will be opened to us. Now this isn't saying Ask for a 50" Plasma Screen TV and it will be given to you, but our needs will be met thru Christ if we come to Him on a daily basis. The complicated questions in life He will answer in His own timing if we ask Him instead of seeking out the answers some place else that will not be able to give them to us. Time and time again we fail as followers of Christ because we do not go to Him. We try to be perfect but we fail miserably. God does not ask us to be perfect though, He just asks us to seek thru Him, to come as you are where you are in life and follow.

And yet we tend not to do this more often than not. We try to find answers by our own means to life's most complicated questions that no one has the answers to but Him and get annoyed and frustrated in the end when we come up empty handed

I want to challenge you to seek Christ in EVERYTHING. Ask Christ thru EVERYTHING and by doing so you will be given answers that you need to be able to grow. You will find what you are seeking and Christ will continue to open up the doors that are needed for you to be in relationship with Him and walk with Him daily.

Matthew 7:7-12
"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. "Which of you, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him! So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.
