“You will seek me” means that He knows every one of us, from the first breath we take, will fill the missing piece in our hearts that He placed in us and will be seeking to fill that void until we find Him.
I believe through the times when I’ve felt farthest from God or when I’ve been running from His arms instead of to them; I was still seeking him.
