Quotemeal: Feb. 23rd, 2006

Thursday, February 23, 2006

"And what kind of habitation pleases God? What must our natures be like before he can feel at home within us? He asks nothing but a pure heart and a single mind. He asks no rich paneling, no rugs from the Orient, no art treasures from afar. He desires but sincerity, transparency, humility, and love. He will see to the rest."
— A. W. Tozer
