Quotemeal: Sep. 17th, 1947

Wednesday, September 17, 1947

"We humans are a hungry lot. We are driven by a craving to know who we are. Yet who we are is embedded in the heart of a holy God. Unless we seek for ourselves in the epicenter of God's grace, we will be forever condemned to walk the arid edges of self-understanding."
— Calvin Miller
