Charles Spurgeon Commentary John 4:23-24

"But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth: for such doth the Father seek to be his worshippers. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship in spirit and truth." — John 4:23-24 (ASV)

But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

All the true worship in the world is of God's seeking. None would ever worship him rightly if he did not lead them to it. He seeks them, and then they seek him.
