27. That they should seek the Lord--That is the high end of all these arrangements of Divine Power, Wisdom, and Love.
      if haply they might feel after him--as men groping their way in the dark.
      and find him--a lively picture of the murky atmosphere of Natural Religion.
      though he be not far from every one of us--The difficulty of finding God outside the pale of revealed religion lies not in His distance from us, but in our distance from Him through the blinding effect of sin.
