“Without faith it is impossible to please God, whoever wants to draw near to God must believe that God Is and that He rewards those who seek Him.” 🚶‍♂️✨

Today’s verse shows the absolute foundation on which the relationship with the Creator is based. 📜 Notice that God does not expect merely a passive, intellectual acknowledgment of the fact of His existence. Drawing near to Him requires *action*! 🛠️ You yourself must take the initiative, desire to know Him and start searching for Him. God does not force anyone into a relationship, but joyfully waits until you reach out your hand. 🤲 The words “whoever wants to draw near” are not a promise that everything will happen by itself – it is a call to hard work on your trust. ✨ God wants to bless you and be your greatest reward, however, the necessary condition is full commitment and true, living faith. ❤️‍🔥

This motive is extremely important when you realize that our faith is to imitate the trust-filled obedience of our Lord, Yeshu. 🕊️ However, my attention in this passage is particularly drawn to the word “seek”, which is a strong contrast to the attitude of today’s world. The world is like a dense fog of indifference. 🌫️ Most people, absorbed by everyday life, live as if the Creator did not exist, running away from Him or creating for themselves a false, comfortable image of God. Your goal is saving faith, which becomes a powerful driving force of life. Building your mind on the Truth – the unshakable certainty that the Father is good, and that in the name of our Savior, Yeshu, it is worth putting every effort into searching for Him! 🔥

**Reflection for today** 💭 Consider, what does your daily search for God look like? 🤝 Are you aware that God expects from you an active desire to know Him, and not just ticking off religious traditions? 📖 Consider also, what image of God do you carry in your heart? And what if you doubt His goodness, treating Him like a distant judge, instead of believing that He wants to reward your effort? 🚶‍♂️ Ask the Lord Yeshu in prayer for a living faith that pleases the Father, and for a zealous heart. Do not forget that it is you who must want to take that first, trusting step in His direction! 🧭
