Still searching

It occurs to me today that my life seems to be all about searching. When something is not going the way I would like it to I start looking for a way to improve it. All aspects of my life fall under this scrutiny. I wonder if used correctly this is Gods way of bringing me closer to Him.
I always feel as if I'm short the time and attention He deserves in my life. So I am always searching for a better way to get closer to Him.
Prayer, meditation, simple conversation, acts of love and mercy to my fellow man. Its the sitting down and being quiet part I have trouble with. The ability to just be, to just open my heart and mind to listen to His voice speaking to me. I seem to find Him in the faces of the people around me. Maybe He knows its the best way to reach me.
I am often humbled by Christ' presence in others. Seeing Him in their eyes, hearing Him in their voices, feeling Him in their touch. God is all around us its true. I just look forward to the day when he truly will hold me in His arms.
