Failure of Reverence

Posted in theoflections with tags , , , , , on February 15, 2010 by Mark Hanson

I’m reading a book by Steve Gallagher, At the Alter of Sexual Idolatry, and he makes a rather astute observation:

“If God’s wonderful presence alone does not capture their devotion how will they ever be satisfied with anything else?”

It makes for a good reality check to reflect on whether or not God’s presence really is enough alone to keep one satisfied in a world that vies for ones affections.
