The Pursuit of God

Chapter 7 Restoring the Creator-Creature Relationship

We live in a secular society in which God is largely ignored. Yet everything in nature depends upon right relationships amongst its varied members. Foremost in significance is the restoration of a harmonious and life-giving relationship between the Creator and his human creatures. This must be a properly ordered relationship, however, in which we continually acknowledge and honor the Creator’s rightful preeminence. Far from diminishing human dignity, such voluntary submission on our part restores our human dignity and increases our human flourishing. ***

Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth. ~ Psalm 57:5
