Devotionals
I woke one morning to walk. I had purposed in my heart to seek the One who made me. I sought out His beauty in the people around me. I found it not there. They were telling me of Him, but they were not Him. I took some steps aside from them and looked to the world around me. I found it not there. It told me of the wondrous one I seek. But He was not there. I sought Him in the corners of my soul and my mind. But I found Him not there. I knew of Him and heard of His greatness, but alas, He was not there.
I sat on a stone and cried aloud that I could not find the one who made me. The words and passion of this search grew together and formed a tornado of desire. As it grew it destroyed me from the inside out. All my belongings and desires were sucked from me. Till I sat on my stone with nothing. It was then that a “wee small voice” appeared in my body. ” I have been here with you all along. I have seen you, heard you, walked with you. I have felt your pain and your sorrow. I have been in the midst of your sin and still loved you. I will not leave you, though you leave me. What you seek is here.”
Oh Holy One of God! The Son of the Most High! The Blood shed for me!! The Grace of the Father in Heaven! The God who SEES!!!!!!!! He is near to me. Even in the flesh of my body. He is in the world around me. He is in those near and far from me. This is true and faultless. The question is not where is He. The question is, “Where am I to Him”.
