Every want of the heart pointing Godward is a chili agon that touches at a thousand points. which are defects so palpable and so easily removed, that nothing but antipathy to the objectors could have retained them.
This man, whether of wrath or grace he preach, So skilfully doth handle every word; And by his saying doth the heart so reach, That it doth joy or sigh before the Lord. But some there be, which, as the brute, doth lie Under the Word, without the least advance Godward; such do despise the ministry; They weep not at it, neither to it dance.
The endless day will at length dawn whose every throbbing moment will heave our hearts Godward; we shall scarce need to lift them up: now, there are two door-keepers to the house of prayer, and Sorrow is more on the alert to open than her grandson Joy. The gladsome child runs farther afield; the wounded child turns to go home.
And yet since the human heart, if sound and wholesome, hungers, even when penetrated by Godward devotion, for some fellow-creature on whom to expend its tenderness Katherine, just now, regretted to be alone. The scene was so beautiful, she would gladly have had some one look on it beside herself, and share its charm. Then thoughts of the future obtruded themselves.
'Aye, Steenie, quoth the laird, sighing deeply, and putting his napkin to his een, 'his was a sudden call, and he will be missed in the country; no time to set his house in order weel prepared Godward, no doubt, which is the root of the matter but left us behind a tangled heap to wind, Steenie.

Let them remember that when they go down, they are going just as directly toward infinity as when they go up, and that every man who works Godward, works in honor.
Men had been trying by all manner of devices to sublimate their souls, and climb Godward by their own self-mortification; but they had realized no divine help. To meet this want they developed a veritable doctrine of faith. They had learned from Buddhism the great influence and power of one who could instruct and counsel and encourage.
"'If we love one another God dwelleth in us, and mark how the words were made good in the way by which at last the race found God! It was not, remember, by directly, purposely, or consciously seeking God. The great enthusiasm of humanity which overthrew the old order and brought in the fraternal society was not primarily or consciously a godward aspiration at all.
Now that he was restored to health and strength, he did not seek to forget those feelings, nor would he allow his convictions of great obligations Godward to lead him nowhere. He resolved to do some definite work for his Divine Master, and to seize the first opportunity that presented itself. His friendship with Frank passed into a deeper, stronger phase than ever before.
The farmer and the baker begin the series of man's industries. So that these loaves were fitly taken as representatives of all kinds of human industry and their products, and as such were consecrated to God. That is the broad significance of this institution, which, as we shall have to see, links itself with the other two conceptions of the priestly life in its Godward and in its manward aspect.
