“Gratitude is a form of worship in its own right, as it implies the acceptance of a power greater than yourself.”
“Worship from the heart in times of adversity implies an attitude of humble acceptance on our part of God's right to do as He pleases in our lives.”
“. . . Harboring an emotion as powerful as gratitude has power of its own.”
“When you live to lift the burdens of others, your own burdens become lighter. You are able to face your own trials with greater acceptance, a more understanding heart, and deeper gratitude for what you have rather than pining for what you lack.”
“...to form something greater than the sum of its parts.”
“I am willing to serve my country, but my worship I reserve for Right which is far greater than my country. To worship my country as a god is to bring a curse upon it.”
