WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR IN MMX?

Seek a worthy prize.
Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness (Mt 6:33).

Parables on Seeking...
The treasure hidden in a field,

God's best,
God's will,
God's leading and
God's power.

Seek Until You Find
Matthew 7:7-8

8 For every one that asks receives; and he that seeks finds; and to him that knocks it shall be opened.
