Three Examples Among Millions (seek meaning)

I am sitting in Dunkin Donuts listening to a woman scold a 5-6 year old boy. For over 20 minutes she is shaming him about stealing something then lying. He seems stubborn and refusing to admit wrong in between his tears of shame. What she is seeking  (I think) is some sign of repentance, an acknowledgement of wrong doing. (seek meaning)

I am watching Shark Tank and one of the sharks is scolding someone for withholding information. What he is seeking I think is transparent honesty.

I am reading the book “the Fabric of the Cosmos” by Brian Green. The theoretical physics community is seeking for what some of them call a Theory of Everything or the unified theory. This theory will link quantum physics (subatomic) to relativity (gravity) it will explain and predict all things in this universe. What I think they want is the truth about reality. Why are we here? How did we get here and what is the purpose for us and all that we see?

Repentance, honesty, the truth about reality.

“I am the way, I am the truth, I am the life.”  – Jesus Christ

The things that humanity seeks day in day out are all associated exclusively with Jesus Christ. Life, joy, peace, provision. Jesus Christ is truth and goodness itself. We really crave him and every single human that lives (whether they realize it or not) is actually seeking him.

We want him and we crave him deep within. Our DNA is programmed to express him and live by him but we’ve been distracted and enslaved by another.

Systems of Unbelief and Distraction

Enslaved by systems that are independent and disbelieving in Jesus Christ. But he is still there and we are still seeking him. Some seek him ignorantly by default and others seek him intentionally in pursuit of knowing him.

The good thing I see, regardless of who does or does not come to him is that absolutely everything is going to Jesus Christ. He will not be a mystery to the majority of people on earth forever. He is the future itself for everyone. And when we all see him we will know why we exist, truth will prevail. Honesty and integrity will be the norm.
