words that got me through this week ++

Deuteronomy 14, 15


“Worship is the submission of all of our nature to God.
It is the quickening of conscience by His holiness,
Nourishment of mind by His truth,
Purifying of imagination by His beauty,
Opening of the heart to His love,
And submission of will to his purpose.
And all this gathered up in adoration is the greatest of human expressions of which we are capable.”

Psalm 131

Intimacy with Him is not a prize we earn.  It is a grace He bestows.
