A.w. Tozer Writes In The Pursuit Of God: "If God ...
Contributed by Richard Wafford on Dec 3, 2004 (message contributor)
A.W. Tozer writes in the Pursuit of God: “If God is present at every point in space, if we cannot go where he is not, cannot even conceive of a place where He is not, why then has not that Presence become the one universally celebrated fact of the world? The patriarch Jacob, “in the waste howling wilderness,” gave the answer to that question. He saw a vision of God and cried out in wonder, “ surely the Lord was in this place; and I knew it not.” Jacob had never been for one small division of a moment outside of that all pervading presence. But he knew it not. That was his trouble, and it is ours. Men do not know that God is here.”
In our experience with God we must be looking for him in order for us to experience him.
