SEEKING AND FINDING

 SEEKING AND FINDING

 

Around the Year with Emmet Fox

 

June 4

 

People are very apt to find what they seek.

You have noticed that people

who go about looking for trouble,

practically always find it.

The popular proverb,

"Listeners seldom hear good of themselves,"

 is an example.

We also know people who love to say

 that they never have any luck.

When things seem to go against them,

 they exclaim triumphantly,

“Wouldn't you know it?

—that is what always happens to me!"

Now, such a mistaken person

needs only to alter this habit

and he will automatically alter his life.

It is often difficult to get such people

to make this alteration,

but if they do the result is never in doubt.

Spiritual law says that it is never too late to mend,

and that when we seek God's help we find it.

“Look unto me, and be ye saved,

all the ends of the earth;

for I am God, and there is none else”

Isaiah 45:22
