Doing as Worship

"Work done in the spirit of service is the highest form of worship…." (“‘Abdu’l-Bahá on Divine Philosophy”, p. 78)

Lately I've been reconciling doing service and my continued spiritual growth. Principally, I have not been reading as much as I would like as I have taken on more service commitments, and feel that my faith is suffering for it.

True service must not be done out of a sense of obligation to anyone but God. Doing and reflection upon doing and the words of God must go hand in hand.
