"God looked down... to see if there were any... that did seek God... no, not one... they have not called upon God" (Psalm 53:2-4). "Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh... with all wisdom... A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself... The ear of the wise seeketh knowledge" (Proverbs 18:1,2,15). "Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning" (James 1:17).
When
God looked down upon us all,
He
saw humanity undone.
Not
one upon the Lord would call
Or
even seek Him, no not one.
If
God had not pursued us first,
We
never would have sought His face
Or
even cared that we were cursed,
In
desperate need of saving grace.
We
are surrounded still today
With
those indifferent to salvation,
Yet
through desire, some will pray
And
seek the Lord through separation.
O
Lord, how gracious is Your gift
Of
Your salvation from above
That
separates each one You lift
To
seek Your face and trust Your love.
