Seeking God




O God, teach me to seek You, and reveal Yourself to me when I seek You,


For I cannot seek You unless You first teach me,


nor find You unless You first reveal Yourself to me.


Let me seek You in longing, and long for You in seeking.


Let me find You in love, and love You in finding.


- Ambrose of Milan, 339-397

Hi Janet,

It is comforting to know that God is in control and that nothing comes as a surprise to Him. What have we to fear?

We're enjoying the U.S. Thanksgiving holiday over here in North Bay. I've been reading through your blog, and I am happy to see that you are having a great time.

Your Uncle from the U.S.
