The gap between a holy God and mortal man is beyond words. If we should put forth enormous effort to climb the highest mountains, we would there discover that we are not much closer to the nearest star. The closer we come to the light, the more we discover our lack. Yet we also receive a vision of God's grace and mercy. Consecrated souls are humble, and they tremble at God's word…
…A heart that is given to God will always be given to prayer, always feel a need of Him, and ever desire to worship Him. Our highest purpose on earth is to honor the living God. It is not enough to be a devoted or dedicated person, but we must be devoted to God. May our spirits reach out to God so we may say with David, "I stretch forth my hands unto thee: my soul thirsteth after thee, as a thirsty land" (Ps. 143:6).
