A.W. Tozer emphasizes the significance of seekers after God, describing them as the salt of the earth and light of the world, despite their small numbers compared to those who have forgotten their Creator. He acknowledges their deep thirst for God, which is a sign of divine election, and notes that these seekers often face disappointment and struggle, much like biblical figures such as Jacob, David, and Peter. However, their relentless pursuit leads them to the grace of God, transforming them into what they long to be. Tozer highlights that even in ancient times, seekers existed, and their hope in God is more commendable than the indifference of those who refuse to repent. Ultimately, he reassures that God's love and grace are available to all who earnestly seek Him.

Seekers after God. Thanks be to God on high that these too are among us. They are the salt of the earth and the light of the world. Their number is not large when counted against the millions who have forgotten their Maker, but taken together they are a goodly company and dear to the heart of God. Ah, those God-hungry souls! By nature they are no better than the rest of men, and by practice they have sometimes been worse. The one sign of their divine election is their insatiable thirst after the Source of their being. Deep calls unto deep and they hear and respond. These are almost always a disappointment to themselves, and sometimes they have for a while been a stumbling block to the world, as were Jacob and David and Peter. But many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it, and their questing hearts find what they seek at last. The grace of God meets them as they return and changes them from what they are sorry they have been, into what they have so fervently longed to become. Towe know what the wise Greek could not know, that God was in Christ reconciling the world unto Himself, not imputing their trespasses. Seekers after God there surely were even in those old Grecian times and their destiny lies in the hand of the One who gave His only-begotten Son to die for the life of the world. One word needs to be added. It will go better in the of reckoning for the seeker of pre-Christian days who stretched out pagan hands toward God in hope that he might find Him, than for the careless sinner of who is sated with hearing and who refuses to repent and believe.
