What are you seeking for in your life? What are you trying to develop and strengthen.
Let's try a little scenario:
You are driving down the road and you are looking for an address. There are many things to take into consideration.
1. What is their street number
2. What is their house number
3. Where on the house or curb is the number for their house
4. Do they look home
Now, once we have found the house, think of how excited you are that you found their home. This is like searching for things that are of God. We must look at what we searching for, where to find it, where to look, and then to go and see if it is worthy to be found.
There are many things to search for and to seek after, but are they things that are worth while. In the scriptures, it teaches us that we need to search for things of God. Look at this picture below:
In the scriptures it teaches us, in Doctrine and Covenants 4, that we need to seek after the qualities that are around the edge of this paper, which are:
FAITH

PATIENCE

These are things that God has asked us to seek after. They are things that He knows will bring us the most happiness. I promise, if you sought them you would find the most joy that you can have in this life!
