I know there are times I find God's presence in a particular place. Maybe I find Him in a song, or in a book or in a physical place. I may revisit these places again and again. But, these places have limits or seasons. I say they have limits because, I try to go back there and recreate what I did to get into His presence, but there is nothing. It not that God has gone away. God is still God and He still wants me to seek Him, "seek" being the key word.
The Bible says to seek God with all our hearts and we will find Him. This seeking speaks of having to be active and pursue God. Many times and seasons, I want God to be easy to find, my relationship with Him not costing me much. But, I believe God wants us to, like with precious treasure, to have to pursue and look for Him passionately. If we were told there was a million dollars buried nearby and given a map, wouldn't we passionately pursue the finding of this million?
God never changes, but he always wants to change us into His image. It takes blind faith sometimes to seek. Sometimes God is allusive. Sometimes He is right here. But He is always able to be found. Hunger for Him drives me on to seek and know the Creator, the Almighty, Jehovah.
