Do you desire to know more, to have more, of Christ? There are few who could hesitate to reply, Yes, I do. And yet it is quite true, as often said, that each of us possesses as much of Christ as he desires. Of the Israelites in the wilderness we read that they gathered of the manna every man according to his eating. The appetite determined the amount collected. So it really is with ourselves. Christ never withholds Himself from those who truly seek Him; no, He responds to us far beyond our desires. The fact is, we want to have more of Christ, and something else besides. This cannot be. It must be Christ alone-Christ our only object-and then He will satisfy even beyond our utmost expectations.
