Knowing is one thing, Doing it is another thing

Seeking God

     Semester has finally ended, light from the other side of the tunnel has finally made its way to my retina and thus I could finally rest from all the sleepless nights, though I still slept at about 5 in the morning to do some of the stuff for my mom, I could wake up later than usual in the sense.( I actually wanted to write something else earlier but I suddenly feel like posting this first).
     Today, I am not on duty at Kidzone but I don’t know why I woke up earlier than expected. I went out to air my laundry at the balcony and I could feel the cold breeze hitting my face. It was very refreshing. Talking for a while with my housemate, I suddenly felt like spending some time to talk to God, reading His Word. So I went to my room, and start reading, but when it came to the prayer part, I fell asleep.
     Waking up, reminded with the korean TV shows I watched yesterday, I turned my computer on and start browsing for it. Watching, laughing at it, suddenly I felt something inside me, confronting and ’scolding’ me. I was like..hmm ok, what is it?
     The voice’s telling me, wouldn’t it be better if the same kind of spirit, the same kind of enthusiasm to watch those korean shows, is seeking for God instead? Patiently waiting for the show to finish downloading to be patiently waiting ’till God speaks instead? Browsing passionately for favourite superstars update to be passionately wanting to know more about Him instead?
     The quest to find out what does it mean to seek God has finally ended. I had been asking myself and God Himself, what does it mean to seek Him? Forcing Him to speak when I don’t hear Him, but one thing I miss is to wait, to hold on, to continue knocking until He could not stand it anymore, until He is moved and reveal Himself.
     Today, I’ve decided to make Jesus my superstar, whom I will be passionately searching to know more about, excitedly looking forward to talk with, and last but not least be patiently waiting until He is finished ‘downloading’. With that I told Him in prayer,"Oh Lord, that You will give me the kind of heart that seeks You first."

jeremiah 33:3 "Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know"
