“And she will have a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.””
Matthew 1:21
Wise people still seek the truth
Wise people seek the truth. They’re not happy with guesses or speculation when it comes to life, themselves, or God. They’re willing to go to any lengths to find the truth.
The Bible says that, when the wise men arrived in Jerusalem, they asked, “Where is the baby who was born to be king of the Jews?” (Matthew 2:2 NCV). The wise men sought Jesus. Wise women and men still seek him today.
The wise men were seekers. They studied, watched what was happening around them, and saw the star—and they knew a Savior was going to be born. They made an expensive, months-long trip across the scorching desert because they were serious about seeking God. That’s wise.
Seeking God today is still wise. When it comes to the search for truth, there are two kinds of people—speculators and seekers. Speculators just guess about the truth. They wonder and make assumptions. They love to talk about God. They say, “I think God is like this,” or “I like to think of God as that.”
But what you think about God doesn’t really matter. What matters is the truth. What you think about God may be comfortable for you, but it could be wrong. What you need to know is the actual truth about God, not speculation.
Genuine seekers, on the other hand, take the time and the trouble to find the truth. Their minds are open to what they might discover about God or the Bible. When they have doubts, they ask questions and are willing to go to any lengths to find answers. God loves seekers because seeking leads to truth.
You can have Jesus right in your midst and miss him if you’re not looking for him. But if you are genuinely serious about knowing the truth, you won’t be able to miss it. Why? Because God won’t let you miss it.![:latin_cross: ✝️](/emoji/271d.svg)
