Seek and You Will Find

what are you seeking for in this life? what do you hope to find?
what are you willing to sacrifice or to lay on the line?
most everything in life you get comes at a cost or a price
and not everything you see is acceptable and not everyone you meet is nice
just don't allow anything to disconnect you from the love of God
be it a man or woman, money or drugs or whatever affects your heart
and don't get caught up in worldly things, find the balance with a spiritual accord
and let that which you seek not be that which takes you away from the Spirit of the Lord

does whatever you desire cause you to stop your worship of the Lord Christ?
will it disconnect you from God and cause you to contemplate taking your life?
you need to fight and find your way back to the Lord God
to persevere and press towards Him with a righteousness of heart
to fight against demonic forces and seek the Lord Jesus Christ
and understand that He does not desire that you struggle in this life
God will never leave you nor give you more than you can bear
He will meet you at your crossroads in life and carry you anywhere

so bring all to the altar and lay it at God's feet
seek and you will find that with God your life will be complete
