Seek Him and you WILL find Him

"As for you, my son Solomon, know the God of your father, and serve him with your whole heart and a willing mind; for the Lord searches all hearts, and understands every intent of the thoughts.  If you seek him, He will let you find him; but if you forsake him, He will reject you forever." 2 Chronicles 28:9

Earlier today I was meditating on this verse and was thinking about how when we seek the Lord, we WILL find him.  And that he will speak to us in a way that we can understand.  He loves us and wants to bring us to Him and lead us in the truth.  Hallelujah!  Praise be to our Lord!

Then I was listening to/reading some testimonies of Muslims who converted to Christianity, and I wanted to share them with you guys... if you can find some time to listen, I strongly recommend it!  

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-L1KIU7lao - this one's like 15 min

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3lHueRXvh0  - this is a testimony of another guy. this one's 28 min.  And I love it because while there is still some similarities to the testimony, it is so different.  He also talks more about his Muslim background and gives insight into the Islamic religion.  So I found it really interesting.  God speaks to His people and works in each person's life so uniquely because each person is so different!  And this one really spoke to me because his testimony reminded me so much of my sister's Muslim friend from northern.  His doubts, his questions, his thought processes... Except for he hasn't reached the point of conversion yet.  But he is more broken now than ever before, and seems to be hungry for God's word and God's direction in his life than he ever has been.  So may the Lord continue to work and save his soul!

http://www.answering-islam.org/Authors/Qureshi/testimony.htm - the written testimony of the guy above.  It includes some more detail about the vision/dreams that he had before turning to follow Jesus.  I was really struck here by how the Lord really spoke to him in his dreams in ways that he, as a muslim, would understand.  The Lord used symbolism in the dream that only he, as a muslim would interpret and understand.  How AWESOME is our God!  He loves us so much and wants us to know truth that he speaks to us in ways that we can hear Him and understand him!  So when we ask God to speak to us and direct us... Let's NEVER DOUBT that he will do that and do it in a way that we understand!

Just wanted to share that with you all!  I was blessed by it.  I love you all and am praying for you guys!  Especially you Faith!!! :)
