God Chasers Daily Devotion-#44

He will not frustrate us. God will allow Himself to be caught by us. As a father playing tag with his child allows himself to be caught by the laughing, loving child, so too will the heavenly Father allow Himself to be caught. In fact, just when you would tire in despair, He will turn and catch you. He wants to be “captured” by our love. He eagerly awaits the laughing, loving encounter. He has missed those times with man since the Garden. Intuitively, God chasers have known this. They were willing to chase the “uncatchable,” knowing the “impossible” would catch them. In fact, one famous God chaser wrote this: I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus (Philippians 3:12b).
