What does the Bible say about Jesus seeking us?

In Luke 4:42-44, we see that Jesus actively sought out those who desired to hear His word, reflecting His mission to preach the kingdom of God. This theme is evident throughout Scripture as God takes the initiative to seek out sinners for salvation. Romans 5:8 powerfully illustrates this, stating that 'while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.' This showcases not only His love but also His sovereign grace, as He chooses to reveal Himself to those who are not actively seeking Him.
