Where Are the Lovers?

Are there any who love God anymore? Who passionately want Him more than any other? Do any chase after even a moment in His presence? He would give us many. We are much more fond of lesser things.

We can hold lesser things in our grity, dirt-soiled palms, but who can behold the Almighty? He would let us, but do any seek Him?

No we seek every fading thing we can fathom because they offer temporary touching. But what's in a momentary touch but future longing and vague memory of things once held ... or were they? For we can hardly remember them. They don't satisfy for when we put those things back into their paces to fade eternally our memory of them fades as well and we're left longing again. Has He not ever satisfied fully?

None seek Him because He's not a temporary quick fix which is all we seem to stomach. We're whores for now and prudes for later. The eternal seems so distant to our squinting eyes and glory is darkened by drawn shades of ego driven doubt.

He alone can satisfy this insatiable longing with greater things than rags and dust. Do any seek Him?

He makes Himself findable and doesn't hide from those dirt-living weary. Do any love God? He has loved us. Where are His lovers?
