Seek his face

My heart says of you, “Seek his face!” (Psalm 27:8; NIV).

Clouds and thick darkness surround him (Psalm 97:2; NIV).

If you are walking in darkness, without a ray of light, trust in the LORD and rely on your God (Isaiah 50:10; NLT).

The LORD says, “I will guide you along the best pathway for your life”
(Psalm 32:8; NLT).

For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then we will see face to face
(1 Corinthians 13:12; NRSV).

The LORD your God will be your everlasting light (Isaiah 60:19; NLT).


Lord,
In order to seek your face,
We must find our way
Through the darkness
That surrounds you.

Sometimes we go astray
In the shadows,
Losing sight of both the world,
And you.

Then we must trust you,
Waiting patiently
Through the dark night of the soul,
Until you show us the path again.

In death, we pass through
The darkness one last time.
Then we will see you face to face,
In everlasting light.
