You
will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.
— Jeremiah 29:13 (NIV)
God
is always moving—but not everyone notices.
There are days when I feel like I’m moving through life with blinders on—looking straight ahead, staying busy, rarely slowing down enough to notice what God is placing right in front of me.
Recently, my team at work moved into a new building, and we’re now on the fifth floor. My desk faces south, with the east just behind me. When I arrive early, I’m greeted by the most gorgeous sunrises. I never get tired of seeing them. Each one feels like a personal reminder from God whispering, “Hey… I’m here for you today. Tell Me what you need.”
Scripture shows us again and again that God responds to desire. He draws near to those who seek Him, reveals Himself to hearts that are open, and moves where He is welcomed. Not because He is distant, but because He honors a willing heart.
It’s possible to be present without being open.
To hear the Word without making room for it.
To attend church while quietly keeping God at arm’s length.
God does not force His way into our routines or our comfort. He waits for invitation.
When we seek Him—not half-heartedly, not out of habit, but with genuine hunger—something shifts. Our faith becomes active. Our worship becomes expectant. Our prayers move from scripted to surrendered.
A church on fire is made up of people who want God more than they want familiarity. People who say, “Lord, don’t just meet us here—move in us.”
And when God is wanted, He comes.
When He is welcomed, He moves.
When hearts are open, He changes everything.
