Thou art my King and my God - (Ps 44:4)
ALL THAT GOD IS I AM TOO

We no longer revere absolute monarchs. People want to apply their own minds to what confronts them, want to participate in the risks. No-one may tell them who or what God is. They will decide whether there is a God and what role He should play in their lives. And so it should be.
Yet the timeless contract of true Monarchy remains: Absolute obedience begets absolute security. What does God demand of us? Must we forego what delights us and endure rituals of submission, or do we have to part to play? In a pure monarchy the interests of the king are identical with those of his subjects. Where he prizes enquiry, knowledge, understanding, fearlessness and joy, we too participate in them.


God's presence assures us "Take My yoke upon you, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy, and My burden is light."
