finding god

²⁷so as to seek God, if perhaps they may consider him or find him, though he is not far from each one of us.

¹³You shall seek me. And you will find me, when you have sought me with your whole heart.

¹⁷I love those who love me. And those who stand watch for me until morning shall discover me.

²⁹And when you will seek the Lord your God in that place, you shall find him, if only you seek him with all your heart, and in all the tribulation of your soul.

⁸For everyone who asks, receives; and whoever seeks, finds; and to anyone who knocks, it will be opened.

⁷Ask, and it shall be given to you. Seek, and you shall find. Knock, and it shall be opened to you.

³Cry out to me and I will heed you. And I will announce to you great things, things that are certain, though you do not know them.

⁸For you were darkness, in times past, but now you are light, in the Lord. So then, walk as sons of the light.

¹⁶For God so loved the world that he gave his only-begotten Son, so that all who believe in him may not perish, but may have eternal life.

²⁴For this son of mine was dead, and has revived; he was lost, and is found.’ And they began to feast.

³³Therefore, seek first the kingdom of God and his justice, and all these things shall be added to you as well.
