How often do we act like petulant children when God patiently waits for us to spend time with Him? There He is on His heavenly throne calling to us, and we are independently busy with other things. He is the best Father possible, and we are childishly ignoring Him. When will we realize just how much He truly loves us?
Oh, I know, you're thinking that you are faithful to pray for everyone on your list from Wednesday prayer meeting.  I get that.  Me too.  But what about just being in His presence more and more daily?  Just waiting on Him.   To stop the busy work and entertainment to be still and know.  Spending time at His feet just soaking up who He is.  Quiet reverence.  Awesome wonder.  
We should be childlike, yet not childish.  Tough one for me.  Consider His glorious nature; His mighty works!  We have never known another worthy of our praise and adoration.  Like children looking for Santa at Christmas.  I remember being more enamored by Santa who gave the gifts, than the gifts themselves.  
Let's search for Him more and more because of who He is and not what He gives.  When we find Him, let's spend time at His feet.  Just adoring Him.
