Go Seek

Rhyan was 2 years old when we played hide and seek for the first time. Matt and I closed our eyes and counted to ten. When we turned around, Rhyan was lying in the middle of the floor in front of us, face-down, with her hands over her ears.

Sometimes I feel like we do that with God. We go through a difficult time and we fall to the floor, close our eyes and cover our ears. We try to hide from Him and our problems, and all the while He’s standing right beside us. He can see us when we’ve fallen. He knows when we feel hopeless and helpless. And yet, we try to disappear. Most of us find ourselves in that position now and again.

Life is hard, more often than not, and that’s when we need to uncover our eyes and look up. It’s time to quit hiding.

Go seek.
