Seeking God with urgency

The Bible commands that we actively seek God. The Bible also advises that our spiritual journey is an ongoing process, one that requires constant vigilance. That much is fairly familiar to consistent Bible readers.

But the Bible also stresses that we seek God with a sense of urgency. Turning to Isaiah 55:6 (NLT),
Seek the LORD while you can find him. Call on him now while he is near.
Implicit in those lines is that our chances for repentance are running out. We shouldn't punt on the opportunity to grow spiritually.

Today, let us adopt this principle of urgency into our prayer lives. If we have a chance to pray right now, then we should pray right now!
