God Is Not to Be Found by Those Who Seek Him
Then shall they call upon me but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but shall not find me. (Prov. 1: 28.)
And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you; yea, when ye make many prayers I will not hear. (Is. 1: 15.)
They cried, but there was none to save them; even unto the Lord, but he answered them not. (Ps. 18: 41.)
