I asked for God,
He seemed so silent.
I looked for God,
He didn’t appear.
I bared my heart
And hoped to hear.
I felt just silence
And fought despair.
What should I do?
Where am I wrong?
I’ve surrendered my heart,
But where is God?
He is wild and He is free.
He does not come when I demand.
But He has promised,
And He does not lie.
“My peace I give to you,
Not as the world gives.”

why is it, the more we look for God, the more he seems to evade us but then he appears in the most simple places in our lives?

Perhaps the cause is that so often when we look for God, we are seeking on our terms and with our own mind and strength and aren’t even look for God, but for a god of our own making. Perhaps it is that He loves to surprise us with His presence. To shock us into remembering that He does want to communicate with us, not on our terms, but His. He is untamed.
