The Supreme Quest of the Soul

Everyone longs to feel good, experience happiness, and live a stress-free life, yet human existence is a long journey filled with ups and downs. True fulfillment cannot be found in sex, alcohol, or the accumulation of wealth; even King Solomon gathered everything under the sun only to declare it vanity of vanities. Every human soul carries an empty void that cries out for its Creator.

Our supreme interest must be God Himself, the brilliant genius behind the visible and invisible universe. In natural matters, human beings must see evidence before they believe, but in the realm of the spirit, faith precedes understanding. We must believe in order to know. God is inscrutable and ineffable, rising infinitely above intellectual grasping; He can only be truly experienced through a personal, conscious awareness.

Getting to know God begins with a conscious decision of the heart. David gave his dying charge to Solomon to know the God of his father and serve Him with a perfect heart and a willing mind. When you make it your life’s quest to pursue God, He promises that you will find Him. Drawing close to the Almighty transforms your entire perspective, anchoring your eternal soul in a relationship that outlasts any temporary material possession or professional title.
