What Good Is It?

Waving or Drowning?: What Good Is It?:

What good is all our busy religion if God isn't in it? What good is it if we've lost majesty, reverence, worship–an awareness of the divine? What good is it if we've lost a sense of the Presence and the ability to retreat within our own hearts and meet God in the garden? If we've lost that, why build another church? Why make more converts to an effete Christianity? Why bring people to follow after a Savior so far off that He doesn't own them?(A.W. Tozer, The Attributes of God)
