Knowing God - The Lord Desires to be Desired


Luke 24:28-29
 And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as though he would have gone further. But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them.
The Lord Desires to be Desired

Jesus was walking with these two travelers and talking them through their troubled times regarding the events of the crucifixion.  He showed them in the scriptures how the Christ had to suffer these things.  They did not recognize Jesus at the time.  As they reached their destination they wanted more time with this wise and knowledgeable man.  Jesus acted like He was going to go on.  They insisted on Him staying with them.  This is when their eyes were opened and they recognized Him.  The Lord is seeking those who seek Him.  The Lord wants to reveal Himself to those who want Him revealed to them.  He is looking for those who hunger and pant for Him.  The Lord is found among those who seek for Him with all their hearts.  He wants to be wanted.  He loves it when people desire His presence.  He will open our eyes.
