Day 191 July 10 Seek the Lord and Live

July 10, 2015 by Carolyn Marlowe Leave a Comment

Today’s Tasting: Amos 1-5

Israel worship of God diminished to a meaningless form of worship. God called Amos to address various nations’ failures to worship the Lord with a true sense of meaning. He also warned them of judgment to come.

“Seek me and live” is the message in chapter five. 

Today’s Nourishment: The only true way to live is to “seek the Lord.”

“But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you” (Matthew 6:33 ESV).

“Seek the things that are above” (Colossians 3:1 ESV).

I wrote a poem about how to seek the Lord and live:

Lord, in these frazzled days,

I seek you, your presence, and your ways.

To design a full life in Christ, I so long

To live in refreshing is my song

From the presence of our Heavenly Father.

 

Lord, in these frazzled days,

I seek you, your presence, and your ways,

Releasing my perspective of you

Receiving your distinct and clear view

Of our Loving Heavenly Father.

 

Lord, in these frazzled days,

I seek you, your presence, and your ways

Ceasing to strive to rely on myself

Gaining your kingdom above all else

By the hands of our Heavenly Father.

 

Lord, in these frazzled days,

I seek you, your presence, and your ways.

Resting in the beauty of creation, people, food, and arts, I’m astounded

Renewing my strength for my Christ-full living, I’m surrounded

With the presence of our Heavenly Father.

 

Lord, in these frazzled days,

I seek you, your presence, and your ways.

Living in God-RELIANCE provides righteousness, joy, and peace in me

Keeping company with Christ helps me to live lightly and free

Because of my new view of our Heavenly Father.

 

What’s your poem of expressing how you may seek the Lord and live?
