Isaiah 55:6-7

"Seek the LORD while He may be found,
Call upon Him while He is near.
Let the wicked forsake his way,
And the unrighteous man his thoughts;
Let him return to the LORD,
And He will have mercy on him;
And to our God,
For He will abundantly pardon."

It is hard to believe that there will ever be a time when one will seek the Lord and yet not find Him. But that time is coming. There is coming a time of trouble upon this world that it has never experienced nor ever will again. A time where God will once again focus His attention exclusively upon Israel. During that time men will seek the Lord but not find Him.

However, the prophet here encourages us to seek the Lord while He may be found. You may not know Him, or you may of drifted away from Him. You may of done something so evil that you feel He would never forgive you. But Isaiah tells us that "He will abundantly pardon."

He desires to hear from you. He desires to forgive you. He wants to abundantly pardon you. Its up to you.
