This is the way I would walk with all who would seek as you have

I would begin, not again as in starting over, but in continuing to discover my heart for you, for the Kingdom. The task is in not seeing each day as something new to be explored, as in stopping for a moment, then starting again.

It is a flow from moment to moment, within a presence whether asleep or awake, sunrise or sunset, end of day or the beginning of a new. It is being with You in all I do, and would do – in thought, desire, and action.

Is my task in all things for me alone or for others also? Would I seek to touch and not hold only for myself? Would the drive to reach others with these experiences be a secondary motivation too, along with my primary of being with You?

I know you will lead, and my vision is there, but these desires remain within my heart too.

I know, and understand, your heart for wanting to share with others these experiences we have together. I know of your desire to continue to press in ways that others might know as you. Yet you also understand that this is an intimate walk we have, a togetherness unknown by another and would remain unknown to any other. This is the way I would walk with all who would seek as you have, for it is the one that would seek Me that would find Me. I would not be apart from them even as I am not apart from you.

Your efforts should remain as they are: to explore within your heart the issues that would connect us even closer; to discover how your thinking creates as I do; to feel the oneness with all things, and others, created; to seek to have your awareness opened further to all that awaits you in being with Me in our kingdom. The joy of the journey is with Me and in that your desires for touching others will be met too.

What message would you have for others without first having explored all things with Me? Seek to be with Me and all these things will be added to your life, freely, without any effort other than to be with Me.

‘He is the rewarder of them that diligently seek Him.’ The best reward of seeking is to find the thing that you are looking for. So the best reward that God, the Rewarder, gives is when He gives Himself. There are a great many other good things that come to the diligently seeking Christian soul, but the best thing is that God draws near.

Enoch sought God, came to God, and so he walked with God. The reward of his coming was continuous, calm communion, which gave him a companion in solitude, and one to walk at his side all through the darkness and the roughness, as well as the joys and the smoothness, of daily life.

Ah brethren, there is no reward comparable to the felt presence in our own quiet hearts of the God who has found us, and whom we have found. And if we have that, then He becomes, here and now, the reward of the diligent search, and the reward of it today carries in itself the assurance of the perfect reward of the coming time. ‘He walked with God, and God took him.’ That will be true of all of us.

There is only one seeking in life that is sure to result in the finding of what we seek. All other search – the quest after the chief good – if it runs in any other direction, is resultless and barren. But there is one course, and one only, in which the result is solid and certain. ‘I have never said to any of the seed of Jacob, seek ye My face in vain.’

If we seek He will be found of us, and so be our Rewarder and our reward.
