No! Of course, he would not do this! He would continue searching, following the vein to find where it leads. Continuing his search for more and more of that which he seeks. He would not cease searching for the riches he craves - the first nugget is not the end of the hunt, but just the beginning.
Yet we do this with God, who is infinitely more valuable than the finest gold. We act as if the moment one has accepted Christ, the search is over. In fact, it has only begun!
Oh, the riches of His mercy - the depths of His love! There should be no end to our search - when we discover something new in Him, we must see it as a signpost pointing the way to something even better, ever deeper. It is not a stop sign, but a green light to pursue Him ever further!
Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God!
How unsearchable his judgments,
and his paths beyond tracing out! (Romans 11:33)
