1 Chronicles 28
9 “And Solomon, my son, learn to know the God of your ancestors intimately. Worship and serve him with your whole heart and a willing mind. For the Lord sees every heart and knows every plan and thought. If you seek him, you will find him. But if you forsake him, he will reject you forever. 10 So take this seriously.”
David is giving the charge to Solomon, not just to build the Temple, but to remain true to the Living God. The warning contained in this charge is one I want to pass along to my children, and to the students with whom I have the pleasure of working on a regular basis. “Worship and serve God with your whole heart and a willing mind. Learn to know God intimately. If you seek Him, you will find Him. If you forsake Him, He will reject you forever. So take this seriously!” May my life reflect a serious desire to know God intimately, to worship and serve Him whole heartedly and willingly, seeking God every moment of every day. May my example encourage others to do the same.
