Guest guest Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 Consider, O man, whether you earn any lasting joy at all from your toil from the time of your waking in the morning to that of going to sleep at night, a toil incessant and limitless, a toil which often does not leave you even a moment's interval to call to mind the glory and grandeur of God! No wonder that even though God is everywhere, those who have seen Him are few and far between. God belongs to all, but there are hardly any who actually claim Him as their everything. Thousands there are who extol the beauty and majesty of God in elegant prose or poetry, but few are the souls that receive His Grace. For the sweetness of nectar is known only to those who place it on the tongue, and not to those who in spite of collecting it in cups, caskets or even barrels, but do not taste even a drop!
