This is the only
proper attitude of the creature toward the Creator, the
Author of our being, and the Creator, Preserver and Lord
of the whole universe. When He speaks, therefore, our
ears should be reverently attentive to His voice, and
every power alert to do His bidding. Our safety, our
happiness, and that nobility of character which prompts to love
and gratitude, and which promptly and wisely heeds
instruction and advances in knowledge and wisdom, all
depend primarily upon our supreme reverence for the
Lord. And therefore the Lord would foster and cultivate
in us that becoming filial reverence that is due to His name. |
