What does it mean to have a heart that seeks the Lord?

Answered in 1 source

A heart that seeks the Lord yearns for His presence and dependency on Him for salvation.

To have a heart that seeks the Lord means one genuinely desires to be in His presence and relies on His grace for salvation. Seeking the Lord is portrayed as a heartfelt cry, akin to a child calling for a parent in distress. This desire is not based on self-righteousness but rather on an understanding of one's need for grace and mercy. When individuals seek the Lord, they are drawn to worship Him, to hear His Word, and to be with His people. This seeking is a sign of spiritual awakening and recognition of one's spiritual bankruptcy apart from Him.
