Present Reality, Continual Pursuit

The Fullness of God, as described in Ephesians 3:16-19 is found in knowing the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge. The fullness of God is not something we stumble upon, but it is our present reality and a continual pursuit.

To have found God and still to pursue Him is the soul’s paradox of love, scorned indeed by the too-easily-satisfied religionist, but justified in happy experience by the children of the burning heart. St. Bernard stated this holy paradox in a musical quatrain that will be instantly understood by every worshipping soul:

We taste Thee, O Thou Living Bread,

And long to feast upon Thee still:

We drink of Thee, the Fountainhead

And thirst our souls from Thee to fill.

Come near to the holy men and women of the past and you will soon feel the heat of their desire after God. They mourned for Him, they prayed and wrestled and sought for Him day and night, in season and out, and when they had found Him the finding was all the sweeter for the long seeking.

—A. W. Tozer (The Pursuit of God, p. 15)
