Jeremiah 29:13 (WEB) You shall seek me, and find me, when you shall search for me with all your heart. Promise #20: If you search for Me with all your heart, you will find Me. When my children were young, one of the games that I would play with them was called ‘hide and seek’. I would hide and then they would try to find me. The game is pretty simple and lots of fun.

Promise #17: I will discipline you in love as a father who loves his children. When we think of being disciplined, we usually default to our own life experience of what that meant for us.
