Delayed Appreciation

A couple years ago, I was in the stupid phase of finding purpose in life. I was reading and asking but I never found it. I settled with the statement that there is no purpose in life. Then I got busy with my last year of college and I have never gotten back to that stupidity.

Fast forward to this day, I googled, "How to Thank God" and stumbled upon a verse Matthew 11:25.

At that time Jesus said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children.

Oh how I was seeing but never perceiving, hearing but never understanding. For I was reading the Word with the intent of disproving it but not reading it with the intent of finding Him.

But if from there you seek the Lord your God, you will find him if you seek him with all your heart and with all your soul

With great symmetry to The Greatest Commandment.
