Daniel had been bugging us about getting a soft toy bat since our Australia trip. We did consider and had been looking since. No sign of any. One desperate attempt: Papa bought a bag of rubber bugs with a small rubber bat for him on his birthday. He got excited . Then Jayne happened to drop by IKEA for her meatball-fix and saw a very nice, velvety soft bat for $5. Now Daniel is delighted. He had been taking care of his 'pet' since it came. Everyone at home could feel the excitement with Jayne's find because we all tried to help look for it.
Sometimes we seek but cannot find. But God invites us :
You will seek Me and find Me when you seek me with all your heart.(Jeremiah 29:13)
And yes. There's great delight in seeking God!
