Seek God and Be Found of Him – Art Katz
Lock yourself in a room; throw the key away; do something! Seek God and be found of Him. That is His promise: “If you will seek for Me with all your heart and all your soul, you shall be found of Me” (Deuteronomy 4:29). When you do obtain that knowledge, maintain it, or else you will lose it.
