Reverence comes from a heart filled with devotion
Without
devotion, reverence is empty show
Devotion requires a humble heart,
Trust in the Lord, and
Trust
in the Church the Lord has set up.
Reverence is the action,
Devotion is the motivation of the heart
God must always be in your heart,
Even if you cannot do the outward actions
Because devotion is important to God and Jesus
May
the Lord fill our hearts with virtue and holiness
Spilling
out of our hearts, like a river of compassion.
Amen
Thank you for new message to see every day and think about. I think you put a whole sermon into one shapely poem filled with deep truths. I especially liked the definitions of reverence and devotion and the explanation of the difference between them.
