But what happens when I don't seek Him with all of my heart... when I don't put forth that effort.
I'm like a starving man with a steak sitting in front of him that's too lazy to pick up the fork. I could sit and complain about how I am not receiving anything, but I am not willing to do anything to change it.
It's so easy to do nothing or complain, and act like I don't know the source of my dissatisfaction... but how rewarding is it to spend time with the Father.
The truth is: how effortless is it to fall back into the arms of the Savior?
All of my effort seemed to be counterproductive, pushing me away from spending time with Jesus. When all it takes is a cry of His name, an acknowledgement and He'll flood in.
It is comforting to know that I can never go too far from His presence; that when I think that I've given up, He will never let me go.

You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. -Jeremiah 29:13
But if from there you seek the Lord your God, you will find him if you seek him with all your heart and with all your soul. -Deuteronomy 4:29
