And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search
for me with all your heart. (Jeremiah 29:13)
These are the men who find Christ—those who seek for Him
with all their heart. I am tired and sick of half-heartedness. You don’t like a
half-hearted man, you don't care for any one to love you with a half-heart; and
the Lord won't have it. If we are going to seek for Him and find Him, we must
do it with all our heart.
I believe the reason why so few people find Christ is
because they are not terribly in earnest about their soul’s salvation. God is
in earnest; everything He has done proves that He is in earnest about the
salvation of men’s souls. What is Calvary but a proof of that? And the Lord
wants us to be in earnest when it comes to this great question of the soul’s
salvation. I never saw men seeking Him with all their hearts but they soon
found Him.
