Acts 17:27 (NIVUS)
God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us.

Acts 17:27 (NLT)
His purpose in all of this was that the nations should seek after God and perhaps feel their way toward him and find him—though he is not far from any one of us.

Every man, woman, and child has a purpose and that simply is to seek after the Lord. You have discovered this secret. In your reasoning, you began to inquire into the things of God. As your thinking and meditation revolved around Yeshua, the Messiah, you found the One you had been looking for all of your life. Now you aim at what He requires and you strive after what He demands. Your cravings for the Truth have brought you into intimate relationship with your Creator and Master, Jesus Christ the Lord.

You have discovered that the Invisible God longs to touch you with His presence and that often He lets you feel Him. Adonai has struck a chord within you and He makes your heart vibrate like the strings of a musical instrument. Now you sing His song, praising and celebrating Him with your hymns.

In your search, you have found Him. Your thorough thought, examination, and scrutiny have brought you understanding and knowledge of God's character. Through your practice and experience you now recognize the Lord, when He shows Himself. You know that He is always ready at hand and not far off. He is not remote nor distant. Although Adonai is great and mighty, He is near to you and wants to bless your life.
