Written by Francois Fenelon (1651-1715), a French Catholic Archbishop, theologian, poet, and writer.
The more you seek for God, the nearer He will be to you; every step that you take toward Him will bring you peace and consolation.
Prayer:
Written by Jessica Van Roekel, a contemporary writer.
Holy God, we bow before you, awestruck by who you are. You are light and life, grace and mercy, just and right, and filled with love and power. Let our hearts draw near to you today. We seek you with all our hearts because we know that our desires are found and fulfilled in you. We want to know you, Lord. You desire relationship and so we say, yes. Yes, Lord. Reveal yourself to us today as we seek your face. Without you our becoming loses its fire and our doing loses its purpose. Guide our steps and our hearts ever closer to you. Help us to know your voice and respond when you call. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
