Keep On Seeking

I am outside

Location and weather are unknown.

I only know, it is of no consequence.

I am in a long line of people

It seems endless.

It stretches beyond and behind me

Past what my eyes can explore.

There is a voice

It feels as if it is 5 people behind me

Or in front of me.

I can hardly hear it

yet there’s clarity at its low volume.

It says to step aside.

It doesn’t coax

It doesn’t waiver

Step aside.

This goes on for quite some time

I step aside.

Those in front and those behind, stare.

I am frozen

And filled with nowwhats.

I turn my gaze downward.

I am told to move and look

Forward.

The words are like a gentle caressing.

The stares

from the line I left, continue

as I move forward.

The stares are inquisitive in nature

I return them.

My eyes say I am without purpose

Only need

Desire to know

Him.

“You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.”

Jeremiah 29:13
