“You asked - after denying they exist - for verses that show we seek God.”

I thought the context made it clear that my request (”Feel free to show me where scripture teaches we have a built-in desire to be saved.”) was for scriptures teaching that unredeemed men seek God, not that believers do. If a desire for God is built in to all humans, then unredeemed men seek Him.

After all, that was our disagreement - you wrote, “Man was created by God. He made us to be drawn to Him, to seek Him out. Thus, our built in goal is to be saved. “

Instead, you show verses showing that believers seek God...which everyone grants.

And since all of scripture is written to believers, why would you expect verses to someone else?
