Definition

Glory-ache-as-received-ordinance — the sweet structural pressure inward in the beholder who recognizes a beauty ordered-to-the-bottom; the ache that arrives specifically in the beholding of GoD, marked as gift. Not emotional sadness, not aesthetic delight, not physical pain, not penitential compunction: a STRUCTURAL ache — the signature an ordering-too-total-to-resist leaves in a beholder. Sweet (not aversive), inward (not projected), structural (reaching into the ordering of the beholder). The -me marks the ache as received: the beholder does not produce it; it arrives with the beholding, as the beholding's own fruit in the body. The ache is the worship's arrival in the body; its absence is not worship's success but worship's distance.
