As we relate human experience, desires, aspirations, and activities to the Divine, bringing these into obedience to Truth and Love, we find satisfying, uplifting good at hand, greater spiritual growth, purer joy, better health, fuller supply, and a freer, happier life. If we relate human experience to the mortal—think and act from a mortal premise—we find limitation, sickness, sin, and death.
Always the good, the spiritually progressive in human thought, has striven to relate the human to the Divine, to relate it to God. Even before there was any true comprehension of the meaning of the words "God" and "Divine," human thought sought to find the cause of all existence, a cause outside and above itself.
Prehistoric man reached out to learn something more than he knew, to better his condition, even though this was done in the simplest and most primitive manner. This reaching out was the effort to relate the human to something higher than was then understood, to rise above the deadness and drabness of noncreative, unproductive existence. It was a groping for light, a searching for intelligent guidance, an urge to discover, explore, and bring into use his potentialities.
