Anyone who comes to God must believe that he is real and that he rewards those who truly want to find him. Hebrews 11:6
One translation renders Hebrews 11:6: " God...rewards those who earnestly seek him." I like the King James translation: " He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him."
Diligently--what is a great word. Be diligent in your search. Be hungry in your questions, relentless in your pilgrimage. Let this book be but one of dozens you read about Jesus...Step away from the puny pursuits of possessions and positions, and seek your King.
Don't be satisfied with Angels. Don't be content with stars in the sky. Seek him out as the Shepherd's did. Long for him as Simeon did. Worship him as the wise men did. Do as John and Andrew did: ask your house. Imitate Zacchaeus. Risk whatever it takes to see Christ.
