Finding God
Luke 17:20 Once, having been asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God
would come, Jesus replied, "The kingdom of God does not come with your careful
observation, nor will people say, 'Here it is,' or 'There it is,' because the kingdom of
God is within you." (NIV)
You can see Him working everywhere, if you try. However, the first place to look for
God is inside of you. It is inside yourself that you will find Him. If you seek Him, you
can find Him. If you are waiting for Him to swoop down out of the sky without your doing
any work, He won't be there. Where is the kingdom of God? The kingdom of God is inside of
you because inside of you is where peace and love abounds. Inside of you is where you find
contentment. Inside of you is the kingdom where love, peace, and joy prevail. In God's
kingdom within you, there is an end to turmoil, an end to fighting, an end to frustration,
and an end to your pain. You cannot see this place within you with your physical eyes. To
see the kingdom of God within you requires you use your spiritual eyes.
