SEEKING

SEEKING


Coffee, early-bird special with toast and hash browns, fun servers: “Good food; fresh help”. Every Wednesday at 6:15 A.M. Bible study. Good Christian friends. Jokes, stories, laughs, prayer. Bible study. I look forward to this meeting of five men and me so very much. Our Bible study. The other guys surely feel the same as I, because absence or tardiness are rarities. We love studying God’s word at the restaurant’s center table, aware of our visibility, as we discuss His word, digging deeper for knowledge, understanding, and application.

In Psalm 63:1 David prayed, “O God, you are my God, earnestly I seek you.” Today our country is in a situation somewhat like David. He was in the Desert of Judah. We are in a Desert of Spirituality. Perhaps at no time in American history has there been less acknowledgement of God’s sovereignty. Politics divide us. Church doctrines divide us. Mankind charges onward with a belief that, through science and humanitarianism, he can solve all problems and achieve ultimate wisdom. However, Paul states in 1 Corinthians 3:19, “ For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in God’s sight.”

While David had neither water nor nourishment, we have the Bible, the ultimate nourishment. By setting apart a portion of each Wednesday morning, we are fed His Word and our blessing is furthered by keeping Him and His word in mind throughout the week. Bible study.

Hungry for the early-bird special, He feeds our souls. God’s word. Bible study. Christian friends. Jokes, stories, laughs and prayer. Our center table is an oasis in the spiritual desert. As God eventually provided for David, so he provides for us. Bible study.
