Many Christians encourage people to "seek" God. Similarly, many Christians claim that God can be "found". I'm also well aware of the existence of many passages in the Bible that talk about the possibility of "seeking" and "finding" God (see for example https://dailyverses.net/seeking/niv/kjv) .
In concrete and practical terms (for the lay reader):
- What does it mean to "seek" God?
- What does it mean to "find" God?
- How can a person know for sure that they have finally "found" God after a long process of "seeking" Him (whatever that means)?
[Given the controversial nature of spirituality questions](https://christianity.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/7168/how-do-we-ask-spirituality-questions) , I'd like to narrow the scope to the **Protestant** perspective.
