What You Look for, You Will Find

I have learned that what you look for you will find. If you want to be a cynic, there's plenty to be cynical about. If you want to be a skeptic, there's plenty to be skeptical about. If you want to be a pessimist, there's plenty to be pessimistic about. What you look for you will find.

But in Psalm 14 it says, "A fool says in his heart, 'There is no God.'" Now this is fascinating, because you and I would say, "Somebody who rejects the divine, this is somebody who's made an intellectual decision." The Psalm says, "No. Somebody who rejects God, who says, 'There is no God,' this is somebody who's made a decision in their heart." The psalmist says that such a decision is not ultimately an intellectual decision—a cognitive ruling that person has made. It's a posture of the heart.
