Have you ever seen a "Where's Waldo" picture? Waldo is this cute little guy who is hidden in a very busy, chaotic picture filled with lots of cars, people, buildings, animals, etc. The object of the picture game is to find Waldo.

Sometimes life is like a "Where's Waldo" picture. It gets very busy and chaotic. The chaos is caused by all different kinds of things like demands from work, commitments to organizations and activities, responsibilities at home, and even major life events like weddings, new babies and even funerals, etc.

Oftentimes when life gets chaotic, we get overwhelmed and begin to wonder "where's God?" We know He's there somewhere, but we just can't seem to find Him. In His Word, God tells us that "if you seek Me, you will find Me." During those times of busyness and chaos, we need to ask, "God, where are You?" We need not doubt His presence, but we do need help finding Him.

Just like in the "Where's Waldo" picture, it is easy to miss seeing God, but when we intentionally look for God, we will find Him; and when we find Him, we also find the peace that we long for in the midst of our Chaos.

So, when life gets chaotic and we are overwhelmed by all of the things life is throwing at us, let's remember to ask God to help us find Him . We will not only find God, but we will also find His peace. Have a peaceful, blessed day!
