Excerpt from the book Meditations for all the Days of the Year - Let us adore God as being eminently worthy of the reverence of all creatures; and, in our powerlessness to reverence Him as He merits to be, let us offer Him all the reverence which Jesus Christ renders Him in heaven and upon our altars; “By Jesus Christ, as Jesus Christ, and in union with Jesus Christ, glory and honor to Thee, God the Father.”
