GRACE FOR THE MOMENT | A DILIGENT SEARCH

1. Grace for the Moment

a) "Grace for the Moment" is a collection of thoughts that are inspirational. They are intended to encourage, to give hope, and to inspire the viewers.

b) Reading a thought can change the way you think about something.


2. Scripture Verse

i) Hebrews 11:6 New King James Version (NKJV)

But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.

3. Thoughts

a) One translation renders Hebrews 11:6: "God... rewards those who earnestly seek Him (NIV). We like the King James translation: "He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him."

b) Diligently - what a great word. Be diligent in your search. Be hungry in your quest, 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.

c) Don't be satisfied with angels. Don't be content with stars in the sky. Seek Him out as the shepherds did. Long for Him as Simeon did. Worship Him as the wise men did. Do as John and Andrew did: ask for His address. Do as Matthew: invite Jesus into your house. Imitate Zacchaeus. Risk whatever it takes to see Christ.
