sought him, but I found him not.
Song 3:1 (KJV)
Tell me where you lost the company of Christ, and I will tell you were
the most likely place to find Him. Have you lost Christ in closet by
restraining prayer? Then it is there you must seek and find Him. Did you lose
Christ by sin? You will find Him in no other way than by the giving up of the
sin, and seeking by the Holy Spirit to mortify the member in which lust doth
dwell. Did you lose Christ by neglecting Him in the Scriptures? You must find
Him in the Scriptures. It is a true proverb, “Look for a thing where you
dropped it; it is there.” So look for Christ were you lost Him, for He has not
gone away. –Spurgeon
