Weekly Bible quote 82

God is Spirit: and they that worship Him must worship in spirit and truth - (John 4:24)

I will revere you in the true spirit of Holiness, Father

To worship God in spirit and in truth does not mean going to a church service or a lecture once a week and saying our daily affirmations or prayers. It means bringing Him into everything we do. To meet together is a good thing, for the Christ said that where two or three were gathered together there was He in the midst of them, but it is not enough.

We worship God when we turn to Him often, not only when we are in sorrow or trouble, but also in our joy. It is to feel our oneness with Him and all that He is and has. It is to know that we are His beloved children, and to live according to our high calling.

When we truly appreciate all the beauty with which we are surrounded, whether it is Nature or whether it is something beautiful made by man, we are worshipping God, for Nature is God in expression, and anything beautiful made by man has been inspired by Him. And God is beauty.
