"Deep calleth unto deep"

William Milford Correll

"The Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God" (I Cor. 2: 10). These words of Paul indicate a world of spiritual reality that is open to those who attain spiritual understanding and grasp the nature of God. It is "the deep things of God" alone that will satisfy the hungers of the heart. Only as we come to know something of God, the creative Principle, divine Love, and the nature of His creation, do we find stability, healing, and deep satisfaction.

The unrest in the world today shows the hunger for a better way of life. This hunger will not be satisfied with mere surface elements or with halfway fulfillment. It cannot be assuaged by resort to materialism—to alcohol, drugs, or material amusement. This urge comes from a deep necessity for identity, for fulfillment, for satisfaction. The only way to arrive at an answer is through an understanding of what man is as the image and likeness of God.

This turning to God takes place within the individual. Through spiritual sense, each one can come to know and to feel the presence of God, Spirit. He can come to know his own true spiritual selfhood and the holiness of this man of God's creating. It is one's awakening to the things of Spirit that reveals the perfect man and leads one to an understanding of his own nature in the image of God.
