Treasure Hunt

One thing I have desired of the LORD, That will I seek: That I may dwell in the house of the LORD All the days of my life, To behold the beauty of the LORD, And to inquire in His temple. . . When You said, "Seek My face," My heart said to You, "Your face, LORD, I will seek." (Psalm 27:4,8 NKJV)

The Bible is a treasure hunt of the highest order. In it the mysteries of the universe are made known. The past, present and future are all laid out by the divine Author Who has ordained every second and every speck of dust. The greatest of all mysteries, the treasure above all riches, the most excellent of all truths is found in the face of the Lord. Sometimes He is right there, staring at me where I cannot miss Him. Sometimes He plays hide-and-seek, delighting me when I stumble upon Him. He is everywhere. He is wonderful.

Lord, Heaven’s surest pleasure is Your presence, and the ability to touch the hands that have touched me, to see the face that has beheld me all this time. Thank You for making Yourself known in Your Word.
