Today's Devotional

It is not a strange thing, then, for the soul to find its life in God. This is its native air. God as the environment of the soul has been from the remotest age the doctrine of all the deepest thinkers in religion. And long before it was possible for religion to give scientific expression to its greatest truths, men of insight uttered themselves in psalms which could not have been truer to nature had the most modern light controlled the inspiration. “As the hart panteth after the water-brooks, so panteth my soul after Thee, O God.”
