seeking god

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

⁶But without faith, it is impossible to please God. For whoever approaches God must believe that he exists, and that he rewards those who seek him.

¹¹Seek the Lord and his virtue. Seek his face always.

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.

²O God, my God: to you, I keep vigil until first light. For you, my soul has thirsted, to you my body, in so many ways.

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.

¹¹And may they hope in you, who know your name. For you have not abandoned those seeking you, Lord.

⁷Ask, and it shall be given to you. Seek, and you shall find. Knock, and it shall be opened to you. ⁸For everyone who asks, receives; and whoever seeks, finds; and to anyone who knocks, it will be opened.

²The Lord has looked down from heaven upon the sons of men, to see if there were any who were considering or seeking God.

¹¹The rich have been needy and hungry, but those who seek the Lord will not be deprived of any good thing.

⁶Seek the Lord, while he is able to be found. Call upon him, while he is near. ⁷Let the impious one abandon his way, and the iniquitous man his thoughts, and let him return to the Lord, and he will take pity on him, and to our God, for he is great in forgiveness.

²Blessed are those who examine his testimonies. They seek him with their whole heart.
