"Dstoyevsky wrote that 'the whole law of human existence consists merely of making it possible for every human being to bow down before what is infinitely great. If a person were to be deprived of the infinitely great, he would refuse to go on living, and die of despair.' To be ourselves, we need to worship. The Catechism tells us that creation itself was fashioned 'for the worship and adoration of God. Worship is inscribed in the order of creation' (347).
"Worship gives us a realistic perspective on life. . . ."
In a recent commentary, Fr. Peter John Cameron, O.P.,
reflected on the importance of worship, with special attention to Eucharistia, thanksgiving, in our lives.
