another standard

"Has it ever occurred to you
that one hundred pianos
all tuned to the same fork
are automatically tuned to each other?
They are of one accord by being tuned,
not to each other, but to another standard
to which each one must individually bow.
So one hundred worshipers met together,
each one looking away to Christ,
are in heart nearer to each other
than they could possibly be,
were they to become 'unity' conscious
and turn their eyes away from God
to strive for closer fellowship."
- A.W. Tozer
