The Act of Worship

| Saturday, September 09, 2006

Worship is an act of the understanding, applying itself to the knowledge of the excellency of God, and actual thoughts of his majesty...It is also an act of the will, whereby the soul adores and reverenceth his majesty, is ravished with his amiableness, embraceth his goodness, enters itself into an intimate communion with this most lovely object, and pitcheth all his affections upon him. [Stephen Charnock]
