Transcript of “It is our duty and our joy at all times and in all places to give you thanks and praise.”

“It is our duty and our joy at all times and in all places to give you thanks and praise.”

To worship God is to recognize his worth or worthiness; to look God-ward, and to acknowledge in all appropriate ways the value of what we see. The Bible calls this activity "glorifying God" or "giving glory to God," and views it as the ultimate end, and from one point of view, the whole duty of human beings.

“Christian worship is the most urgent, the most glorious action that takes place in human life.”

Karl Barth

“Of all thy creatures both in sea and land

Only to man thou hast made known thy ways

And put the penne alone into his hand

And made him Secretarie of thy praise.”

George Herbert

“My other shoes

My warm boots

My tweedy coat

The greeny coat of mine

That fuzzy blue coat I have

My coat with the round buttons.

Alan Bennett: my mother’s description of her clothes.

for an ocean of mercy.”
