"I love those who love Me, and those who seek Me diligently will find Me." Proverbs 8.17
God is Love.
In practice, the result of this Love depends on the love He receives from the obedience to His Word.
The same is true in regards to having an encounter with Him.
Only those who seek Him wholeheartedly with all of their soul, with all of their understanding and with all of their strength will find Him.
"The thief does not come except to steal and to kill and to destroy. I have come that they may have life and that they may have it more abundantly." John 10.10
The Lord Jesus gives us two clear alternatives in this verse: Good and evil. Everyone must choose one. The world has witnessed evil's actions because they have turned their back on Good. But those who learn the Word of God and obey it, will surely reap it's fruit in abundance.
