It seems to me that one of the great troubles with todays lifestyle is that we think we are too busy to find time for spiritual meditation and religious devotion. The thoughtless secularism of some supposedly educated men as well as the leanings of the man on the street are both almost exclusively concerned with things; they lack, no, they are barren of all real values and satisfactions of a spiritual nature. More entitlements, free medicines, free health care, free education, more job benefits, higher wages, a nicer car, a really big house, deck, pool and the newest zero-turn mower for example. But, things are devoid of faith, hope, and eternal assurances. Things have no concept of truth, goodness, and beauty. A thing cannot know, much less know truth, hunger for righteousness, and cherish goodness. The sincere pursuit of goodness, beauty, and truth leads to God. And when once start out to find God, that is conclusive proof that God has already found you!
