The soul is unique to humans. Animals do not have souls that rebelled against God and need His forgiveness. Humans do. David, the writer of Psalm 63, recognizes the dire need of his soul. He describes the three stages of his soul: His thirsty soul, satisfied soul and clinging soul. His thirsty soul longs to be filled with refreshing waters of the Lord. His satisfied soul is full of praise for the Lord's lovingkindness. His clinging soul meditates on all the help and protection the Lord has faithfully provided him.
