Topic: When
We Have Not Found God
When we have not found God or we think we have lost Him, we are to keep on keeping
on. We are to keep on keeping on and we are never to stop asking, seeking, and knocking. I
once met a man who said he was chasing the Lord. At first blush, it might seem the man's
faith was weak, but He was doing what we all need to do at many points in our lives. No
matter what happens in your life, you are supposed to seek Him. If you let Him touch you,
you can see Him working everywhere, but the first place to look for Christ is inside
yourself. It is inside yourself that you will find Him. For if you are waiting for Him to
swoop down out of the sky without your doing any work, He will not appear in the sky until
the last day. To truly find God you have to put forth the effort even when it seems He is
absent. With God, there is a rule. The rule is "no effort, no reward". It is
simple. Maybe the rule is too simple for some people. Luke 11:9 "so I say to you:
ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened
to you. (NIV)
