Astonished at the kindness of Christ

Christianity is not about people seeking God and finding him. It is about some people seeking God and not finding him, while others do not seek him but are found by him. If it was about people seeking God and finding him, the new creation would be a ‘prig-sty’ full of stuck-up prigs boasting about how sensible they were to seek him, and how clever to have searched so effectively. Instead it will be full of people with looks of amazement on their faces, astonished at the kindness of the Christ who first found them.
