Deepening our Reverence
Entering the Threshold Where God Is
Reverence is the doorway between us and God that we must continually walk through to find our way in OnenessReverend Blake Isaac
When reverence is sincere and deep, when it means something and does something to us, it rises like a geyser and gets through all the barriers that we might have erected against its incoming. It makes its home within us. This is the aspiration for every prayer, for every worship of God, for every gathering in God's house.
