Pensamientos sobre el Verso de Hoy
Dios nos creó para buscar y encontrarlo (Hechos 17:27-28). ¡Imagina la realidad increíble de esta verdad: el Dios del Universo se regocija cuando nos acercamos a Él! No es, entonces difícil de entender que nos reciba con el mismo gozo como el padre que recibe el hijo en casa otra vez (Lucas 15:11-31).
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Blaise Pascal talked about a vacuum, an emptiness, a craving in each of us that we cannot fill with anything created thing, only with the presence of God. You see, God made us to seek after him and find him (Acts 17:27-28). We are left empty without him — with a God-shaped hole inside of us. Try to imagine the astounding reality of this truth: the God of the Universe made us to need him and to desire his presence in us. Is it any wonder he longs for us to seek him? He waits expectantly to welcome us into his presence just as the father welcomed the repentant and returning prodigal home (Luke 15:11-31). So, Jesus urged us to ask, seek, and knock because God — Father, Son, and Spirit — longs to welcome and bless us with what we need most: their presence!
Mi oración
Padre, aunque haya muchas cosas que mi corazón egoísta busca, en mis más íntimo ser, sé lo que más me hace falta. Lo que más busco ahora es conocerte más en tu santidad y majestad. En el nombre de Jesús Te busco. Amen.
My Prayer...
O, God, while my selfish heart seeks after many things, deep inside, I know that what I need most is to know you in a more holy and majestic way and for you to be present in our lives. In Jesus' name, I seek your presence — my Father, my Savior, and your indwelling Spirit within me. Amen.
