It is written about this: “Seek the Lord while He is found.” That is, when the Creator presents Himself to you for asking, then you will necessarily seek Him, too, for it is man’s way to move first. In other words, the Creator first gives you the heart to seek Him.

When you know this, you will certainly grow stronger, as strong as you can ask, for the King is calling you” (Baal HaSulam, Letter No. 52).

We must constantly seek the Creator. He awakens a desire for Him in us, but in fact, He is still concealed, and we need to do some actions to come closer to Him, to find Him.

Question: How can we understand that the Creator reveals Himself for us to seek Him and that we need to make a movement in response to Him?

Answer: You can make the movement to Him only according to your desires. Where does your desire for the Creator come from? It is because He gave it to you. After all, the Creator is always the first, everything starts with Him.

If you have desire for the Creator: “Where is He, what, how am I with Him?”, it is only because He awakens such desires in you.

And you have to try to come closer to Him and cling to Him.
