A quest


After Matthew 7:7-12
 

The quest, the search

begins with an act

of embarkation, an act

of commencement,

of undertaking. 

The quest doesn’t

begin on its own;

it begins when 

the initiative of desire

sparks into the initiative

of action. The spark

is necessary and required;

it is not a spontaneous 

burst of energy changing

everything. The spark

simply starts the fire.

The quest contains

a promise: if you seek,

you will find.
