Thirst for God

 Human beings are characterized from other creatures by their capacity to reason out. While this is very much true, human beings in a great manner are characterized by their thirst for God, the source and centre of life. To a greater extent animals use their reasoning power to satisfy their bodily needs and never use reason to thirst for their Creator. The thirst for God is only exhibited by human beings. As there is thirst for water every to survive, similarly there should be a similar thirst for God. If the thirst is not quenched with water, we risk our own life. It is the drive to live that pushes each one to quench the thirst. So too, the thirst for God should never cease in the whole life. It is a call to thirst that is never quenched except by God. So, this thirst should not be a once in a week business or once in a month but every day and every minute, it should flow from our hearts.The thirst only ends at death.
