-Thou shall worship the Lord thy Ood. and Him only shall thou serve." "Worship . . .serve the Lord!" Worship Involves the sttltude of the heart towards God; service Use expression si the life. Worship jg y^Mart's storage battery. Service is tbs dynamo, sat la motion by the power within. Worship alone is sentiment and feeling without Taeolt like escaping steam with .die engine and waiting train. Worship pins service gives the total of God’s rsqnliwmenu of man.
