THE DESIRE FOR HIM



Here is the universal complaint: “We have not beheld the Divine Being.”

Questions: Has He, Whom thou do seek, separated Himself from thee?
Has thy heart felt the pangs of separation?
Has thy wisdom experienced separation?
Has thy heart a desire to meet Him?

And if the answers be “Yes” then is thy search as full of anxiety as it would be if thou wert seeking a lost diamond? Is thy search as intense as it would be if thou wert a father and had lost thy child?

And if the answers be “No” , then it is only right that thou search first for the desire to see Him before searching for Him. Having gained the desire, search then for Him for Whom the desire exists.

This is the wheel of a wondrous carriage. Give it but one push and it shall roll on for time eternal!
