4. For the Lord is great and greatly to be praised. Nothing mean or narrow can
be found in him or his acts; in all things he is infinite. Praise should be
proportionate to its object; therefore let it be infinite when rendered unto
the Lord. All the honor rendered unto him should be given in largeness of
heart, with the utmost zeal for his glory. He is to be feared above all gods. Dread of other gods is mere superstition; awe of the Lord is pure
religion. Holy fear is the beginning of the graces, and yet it is the
accompaniment of their highest range.
