We thank You, Lord, that Jesus says to us, "Seek and you will find"
(Matthew 7:7). When we have found Him, may we say, with joy, "I found
Him whom my soul loves - my true love" (Song of Solomon 3:4). What,
Lord, does it mean to find Jesus? It means that He found us. Before we
ever thought of seeking for Him, He came seeking for us. Before we ever
thought of loving Him, He loved us: "I have loved you with an
everlasting love" (Jeremiah 31:3). Before we can say, "Hallelujah! I
have found Him", He finds us: "I once was lost, but now am found."
By Your grace, Lord, You call us to be Your soldiers and servants. Help us not to be "fearful and fainthearted" (Deuteronomy 19:19). Help us to be "good soldiers of Jesus Christ" (2 Timothy 2:3). When we hear your challenging question: "Who is on the Lord's side?", may we give our committed answer: "By Thy call of mercy, by Thy grace divine, we are on the Lord's side; Saviour, we are Thine."
