Hart Speaks to Heart

As the hart panteth after the fountains of water; so my soul panteth after thee, O God. Psalm 42:1 (DRB)


The hart (adult male deer) looked robust, as if he didn't need a thing. And yet he was standing in the creek bed, a place of water. He was thirsty.


Like the hart, we experience dryness despite looking strong. Our hearts thirst for water, Living Water from the stream which never runs dry.


Prayer

Quench my thirsty soul from Your eternal stream, oh Lord. Look out from the window of heaven and find me seeking You.

Quote

The key to Christian living is a thirst and hunger for God. // John Piper


Reflection

Do you desire refreshment from God today? Ask Him to look upon you and pour out His living water into your heart and soul.

Author's Note: "Cor ad cor loquitur," or "Heart speaks unto heart," was the motto of Cardinal John Henry Newman, a founder of the Oxford Movement, which involved a revival in the Church of England beginning in 1833.
