“But you love those who hate you and hate those who love you. Today you said that princes and servants mean nothing to you-for I can see today that it would have pleased you more if Avshalom (Absalom) had lived today, and we had all died!”
2 Samuel 19:7 CJB

“When you seek Me, you will find Me, provided you seek for Me wholeheartedly.”
Jeremiah 29:13 CJB

Today, no matter what good or bad, let’s be those who seek Adonai in everything!
Have a blessed day looking to Adonai!
