What do you Revere?
A scout is reverent. Ask any boy scout what that means and they will say, "going to church."
Ask that scout why they go to church, and they will say,"To worship God."
Ask a scout how they worship God in church and they will say, "by praying to him."
God, church, worship, prayer. They can add up to reverence, but don't always. They definitely don't equal it.
What do you revere?
i revere metamorphosis in nature.
i revere the sound a ball makes when it is hit with a wooden bat.
i revere creation, and don't worry about naming the creator.
i revere the reverent.
i revere the innocence of a baby, the strength of a lion, and the same
strength of a slight flower that gets deluged by a storm, and then opens it's petals to the sun the next day.
i revere human strength and weakness in the context of an unforgiving universe.
i revere my family and friends.
i revere they joy of a beautiful smile.
i revere the fleeting nature of life.
