Seek and Ye Shall Find
What Are You Looking For?
“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened.”
— Matthew 7:7–8 (ESV)

If you look for horror, you will find it.
If you look for joy, you will find it.
If you look for reasons to be grateful, you will find them.
If you look for reasons to be miserable, you will find them.
For much of my life, I’ve felt a deep sense of hopelessness.
