I climbed the mountain
In search of you
Strenuous effort
Sweat and toil
At the summit
I sought you there
Then I realized
Higher I must climb
I continued my trek
Step by step
Seeking you
To be closer
Another summit
I reached a pinnacle
And yet I sensed
Still further to go
As I moved on
I became closer
To you dear God
And your presence
A deep desire
To know you
To understand you
To love you
Then one day
I stopped climbing
I finally found rest
In your presence

Thanks for the comment. Blessings.
There are times when self effort does not cut it, while pursuing God. As we rest, we let the Holy Spirit draw us into the presence of God.
May the Spirit of God draw us closer to Him. May our hearts be filled with a desire to know God. Thanks for the comment. Blessings.
You are welcome! Amen! Abundant blessings!
Beautiful image of the heart seeking after God, Chris.
The more we seek God, the closer we get to Him. Blessings.
I can picture the “belt of Truth” in many ways, but my favorite image is the one of the mountain climber’s belt. It connects me to the One at the top, keeps me from falling to my death when I stumble, keeps me from backsliding when I slip, and enables me to keep climbing until I get to the top.
Great visual. Thanks for sharing. Blessings.
