"The eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew Himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward Him" (2 Chronicles 16:9). "The LORD knoweth the thoughts of man, that they are vanity... In the multitude of my thoughts within me Thy comforts delight my soul" (Psalm 94:11,19). "If thou criest after knowledge... and searchest for her as for hid treasures, then shalt thou... find the knowledge of God" (Proverbs 2:3-5). "Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness" (Matthew 6:33).
The
eyes of God run to and fro
To
search all thoughts, both right and wrong.
It
is the Lord's delight to show
That
He is merciful and strong.
Yet
on this earth, humanity
Continues
to resist the Lord.
Their
thoughts amount to vanity;
His
lovingkindness is ignored.
How
dark are the imaginations
Dismissing
evidence so full!
How
sweetly do the meditations
From
God give comfort to my soul!
My
heart has cried out in pursuit
Of
treasures Christ alone can give.
Apart
from Him I bear no fruit;
Because
He lives I also live.
O
Lord, You drew my heart with thirst
Which
only You could satisfy.
I
found Your love which loved me first
So
much, in fact, that You would die!
Unite
my heart, Lord, with this theme:
To
seek Your kingdom in my heart
That
You may reign therein supreme
With
righteousness that You impart.
