My Daily Meditation For The Circling Year by John Henry Jowett

OCTOBER The Seventeenth NO QUEST OF GOD

|He inquired not of the Lord.|
-- 1 CHRONICLES x.6-14.

That was where Saul began to go wrong. When quest ceases, conquests cease. |He inquired not|; and this meant loss of light. God will be inquired after. He insists that we draw up the blinds if we would receive the light. If we board up our windows He will not drive the gentle rays through our hindrance. We must ask if we would have. The discipline of inquiry fits us for the counsel of the Lord.

|He inquired not|; and this meant loss of sight. When light fails, sight fails. The ponies in our pits become blind. When a spiritual power is not exercised in the heavenly, it is deprived of its appointed functions. And the tragedy is this, that the blind are deceived into thinking that they still retain their sight. |Ye say, we see!|

|He inquired not|; and this meant loss of might. For |the light of life| is not only illumination; it is inspiration too. It is both light and heat; it confers guidance and dynamic. When a man, therefore, refuses the light he becomes a weakling, and he will meet with disaster in the first tempestuous day.
