The Greatness of Obedience

GREAT and sacred is obedience: he who is not able, in the highest majesty of manhood, to obey, with clear and open brow, a law higher than himself, is barren of all faith and love, and tightens his chains in struggling to be free. A childlike trust of heart that can take a hand and, wondering, walk in paths unknown and strange, is the prime requisite of all religion.—James Martineau.
