Quotemeal: Jul. 29th, 1958

Tuesday, July 29, 1958

"Whence comes this idea that if what we are doing is fun, it can't be God's will? The God who made giraffes, a baby's fingernails, a puppy's tail, a crooknecked squash, the bobwhite's call, and a young girl's giggle, has a sense of humor. Make no mistake about that."
— Catherine Marshall
