“Seek the Lord while you can find Him”.  There are opportune times for seeking God.  We must not let busyness make us miss them.  We must not let other pursuits turn us aside.  We all seek one thing or another.  While He is near, call on Him;  While He is calling, answer.  I fear that I have let so many great opportunities pass me by because I was preoccupied with some lesser object.  In walking toward them I was not getting closer to Him.  Structure your life to create opportune times for growth;  structure your time for attentive listening.

Seek the Lord while you can find him. Call on him now while he is near. Let the wicked change their ways and banish the very thought of doing wrong. Let them turn to the Lord that he may have mercy on them. Yes, turn to our God, for he will forgive generously. Isaiah 55:6–7 (NLT)
