Do not I fill heaven and earth, saith the Lord.

JEREMIAH 23:24

LET me not dwell so much within

My bounded heart, with anxious heed--

Where all my searches meet with sin,

And nothing satisfies my need--

It shuts me from the sound and sight

Of that pure world of life and light.

ANNA L. WARING

DO you think that the infinite God cannot fill and satisfy your heart?

FRANÇOIS DE LA MOTHE FÉNMON

Let not cares, riches, pleasures of this world, choke the heart, which
was formed to contain the love of God. Pray, and all is thine. Thine is
God Himself, who teacheth thee to pray for Himself. To pray is to go
forth from earth, and to live in Heaven.

EDWARD B. PUSEY

The vision of God is indeed the transfiguration of the world; communion
with God is the inspiration of life. That vision, that communion, Christ
by His coming had made our abiding inheritance. As often as the
Christian touches heaven, the heaven which lies about us though our eyes
are holden that we should not see it, he is again filled with the powers
of the world to come. Then reverence finds its perfect satisfaction;
then devotion finds its invincible strength.
