~ aEv. q. n. eBIEFE
Pastor astheaisl ohmFth. cau1soa. NJ.

Il Is the Psalmisf who paints 3
never-t0- 0-be-forgotten picture OF the
human heart thirsting for God when
he exelaims: "As the heart panfefh
after the water brooks, SO panteth
my soul after Thee, o God"
These words bring 70 my mind a
fascinating scene Of a peaceful
woodland sl0ping down into a quiet
ravine through which gently ripples
contented brook.
Halt hidden by the green over
hanging foliage, there stands In the
stream q doe, heated and a-thirst BY
the chase, but thankfully drinking.
Il Is picture Of q sOal who,
Though hunted and pursued BY some
kind Of evil, has found ia some
quiet vale. the sustaining Grace Of
Coda spirit gratefully drinking
from the stream Of Divine STRENGTH.
Sometimes ones, life seems to have
become like a bleak dFeary desert.
But DO not give up In despair. Such 4
was the experience Of HaBar. But j
she cried out to God and He opened |
a we'll of water for her and for her |
son.
II YOU are perishing In some des-
cFt experience, cry out to God in
the words Of the Psalmist: 20 God,
thou art my God; early will seek
thee; my soul thirstest for thee, my
flesh lOngeth for thee in a dray and
thirsty land, where no water it: to
see thy power and thy glory, so as
have seen thee in the sanctuary"
The answer TO such cry comes
from God to US through the words of
st John: THE Spirit and the Bride
say Come, and let him that heareth
say Come, and let him that is a
-hirst come. And whOs0eVer will,
et him take the water of life free
