If you want to find God, just look! Jesus said, “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.” If you want God’s presence in your life, it’s as simple as ask, seek, knock. A great place to find God is in Scripture. The Bible is called God’s word, so it’s a great place to learn more about Him. But, the truth is, God can be found everywhere! That doesn’t mean that anything you find is God, far from it. God is who He is no matter what, and there is only One True God. If you go looking for a god of your own design, you will “find” it, though, really, that’s just making up a god. And a made-up god can’t help you. But if you truly seek God, you will find Him.
