Look for it as for silver and search for it as for hidden treasure.
Proverbs 2:4
Jesus Tells Us; Adventurers in movies, real-life archaeologists, even kids love to spend time looking for the lost or hidden treasure. They hope to find gold, silver, jewels, or other valuable things. but as wonderful as those treasures are, they don’t compare to the Joy of this day and My Presence with you. Some days, you don’t have to search for Joy at all, it’s just there, everywhere you look. Other days, you can’t seem to find it, even though you’re digging deep. Instead of buried treasure, all you’re turning up is dull, gray rocks. That’s when I want you to remember that I have created this day, and that I am with you, whether you sense My Presence or not. Start talking with Me about whatever is on your mind. Be glad that I understand you perfectly, that I now exactly what you’re going through. Keep talking with Me, and you’ll start to feel better, and better.
Jesus Concludes; Just being in My Company, can bring Joy into your hardest day.
Proverbs 2:4; Psalm 21:6 Study Notes
Footnotes Proverbs 2:3-6; Wisdom comes in two ways it is both a God-given gift and the result of diligent searching. Wisdom’s starting point is God and his revealed Word, the source of knowledge and understanding. In that sense, wisdom is God’s gift to us. But he gives wisdom only to those who earnestly seek it. Because God’s wisdom stays hidden from the rebellious and foolish, it requires effort to find it and use it. The pathway to wisdom is strenuous. But it is only on God’s path that we discover his true and reliable wisdom. He will guide us to it and reward our sincere and persistent search.
Passage Psalm 21:6; Surely you have granted him unending blessings and made him glad with the joy of your presence.
Footnotes Psalm 21:1-6; David described all that he had as gifts from God, his “heart’s desire.” Rich blessings, a crown of pure gold, long life, splendor and majesty, unending blessings, gladness. We, too, should look upon all we have, family, talent, position, possessions, as gifts from God. Only then will we use them to give glory back to him and to help and bless others.
Jesus Tells Us is from the Jesus Calling 365 devotions for kids.

THE WORLD…we see history
FRENCH CHEMIST AND MICROBIOLOGIST, LOUIS PASTEUR 1822-1895
Before this French chemist and microbiologist made his crucial breakthroughs while experimenting with bacteria, there was a general belief in the concept of spontaneous generation, that life could, and sometimes did systematically emerge from inanimate matter, sources other than living seeds, eggs or the combination of the two. This myth had thrived for more than two thousand years, ever since the wiser-than-wise Aristotle synthesized various theories of life into a single treatise. After Louis Pasteur, germ theory and cell theory held sway, and because they did, massive progress could be made in preventing and curing diseases. Pasteur discovered that many illnesses and infections have their roots in microorganisms. Once this was proved, physicians began to sterilize their equipment before treating a patient. Pasteur also developed a cure for Rabies. He devised ways to control silkworm disease and chicken cholera. He came up with a vaccination technique against anthrax. In 1887 in Paris, he founded the Pasteur Institute, which included a cutting-edge research center for work on virulent and contagious diseases. (He’s buried beneath the Institute today.) as might be guessed, he invented pasteurization, the crucial process in which liquids are heated to destroy microorganisms, such as bacteria that could be carrying disease, and to limit fermentation as well. When used with a product as commonly consumed as milk, pasteurization becomes a health benefit of incalculable proportions. Not surprisingly, Pasteur is often described as the most important scientist in the history of medicine.

Louis married Marie Pasteur (nee Laurent) in 1849. She was the daughter of the rector of the University of Strasbourg, and was Pasteur’s scientific assistant. They had five children together, three of who died as children. Their eldest daughter Jeanne, was born in 1850. She died from typhoid fever, aged 9, whilst at the boarding school Arbois in 1859. In 1865, 2-year-old Camille died of a liver tumor. Shortly after they decided to bring Cecile home from boarding school, but she too died of typhoid fever on May 23rd 1866 at the age of 12.

His grandson, Louis Pasteur Vallery-Radot, wrote that Pasteur had kept from his Catholic background only a spiritualism without religious practice. However, Catholic observers often said that Pasteur remained an ardent Christian throughout his whole life, and his son-in-law wrote, in a biography of him:
Absolute faith in God and in Eternity, and a conviction that the power for good given to us in this world will be continued beyond it, were feelings which pervaded his whole life; the virtues of the gospel had ever been present to him. Full of respect for the form of religion which had been that of his forefathers, he came simply to it and naturally for spiritual help in these last weeks of his life.
