Seek and You Will Find

As I sit here in the quiet of Mom's ICU room...(well, quiet in 20-30 minute increments)...but as it was quiet...realizing it was Blogging day...I have lost track of time....and days.
But remembered early last week God showed me a couple scriptures that I jotted down.

Keep asking, and it will be given to you. Keep searching, and you will find. Keep knocking,[and the door will be opened to you.  For everyone who asks receives, and the one who searches finds,and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.  Matthew 7:7-8

We have asked and He has answered.  We have sought Him and He has met us at every turn. 
We have cried out and He has comforted.
We have had some BIG requests, but He has been faithful, and in the little things too!
Things that don't seem important...especially in light of the hugensess of mom's recovery, but sometimes those little things give great encouragement.  Like the ONE hotel that has a free shuttle for Dad.  And the manager sending me daily emails checking on my Mom and taking extra special care of us.
The timing...in and around Leah's chemo, among other things.

You will call to Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart. I will be found by you”—this is the Lord’s declaration—“and I will restore your fortunes and gather you from all the nations and places where I banished you”—this is the Lord’s declaration. “I will restore you to the place I deported you from.” Jeremiah 29:12-14
We will seek Him with all our heart and call out to Him and pray and  we will be restored! I say WE because as I read His word and thank Him for ALL He has done I am being restored. Allowing it to work for me to be at church and lifted by my family there. He is giving each of us...Dad and Leah restoration, physical and spiritual.
And Mom will be restored!
We see physical strength restoring each day. Baby steps...restoration will be in baby steps!
Ask, Seek, Knock
