Quaker Wisdom for Today

"The reason why we can hope to find God is that He is here, engaged all the time in finding us. Every pulse of love is a tendril that draws us in His direction. Every verification of truth links the finite mind up into a Foundational Mind that undergirds us. Every deed of good will points toward a consummate Goodness which fulfills all our tiny adventures in faith. We can find Him because in Him we live and move and have our being."

-- Rufus M. Jones

Thanks, Brent. Hadn't seen anything of Rufus Jones in a long while. Seeking and being sought; finding and being found. No hide and seek games. Yet it is not too obvious, too clear, too readily perceived. There seems to be a veiled-ness, even if it is thin. "You will find me when you seek me WITH ALL YOUR HEART." Is this a key, do you think?
