Reverence is a foundational virtue for putting on the heart of Christ.

Reflecting on the Virtue of Reverence

• Recall and reflect on an experience of reverence and awe in your life.
• Where and how do I experience God being present in my life?
• How can I grow in reverence for God, others, self, and life?
• How can I foster a contemplative heart?

I think having a sense of reverence and awe is something lacking from many of our Churches and our Christian lives. Cultivating a sense of reverence, however, can bring you closer to our truly awesome (in the real sense of the word) God.
