The Best Thing You Can Do
Seek the Lord while he may be found; call on him while he is near. --- Isaiah 55:6

Do not put off getting to know the Lord for a time that you feel you have nothing better to do. You don’t have anything better or more important to do than to get to know Jesus - trust me! Do you know why Jesus is on your mind in the first place? I'll tell you. Jesus is on your mind because He is pursuing you - not like a person who is trying to get after you for something you've done. No, Jesus is pursuing you because of something you would not think about doing at all if it were not for Him. He is gently and insistently seeking you out so that He may begin a love relationship with you. It is one thing to be told that Jesus loves you, but Jesus knows until you experience for yourself what a love relationship with Him really feels like - you will never have a reason to decide that you want to love Him and build a more intimate and life changing relationship with Him. Responding to a gradual, progressive, intentional, committed, gratifying, unconditional, eternal - love relationship with Jesus Christ - is the best thing you can do for yourself and for the body of believers in this world. Get to know Him. You will be eternally glad you did.
