On Religion

Religion has to do with everything but our hearts. It engages our hands and our feet, it takes hold of our voices, it lays its hands on our money, it affects even the postures of our bodies, but it does not take hold of our affections, our desires, our zeal, and make us serious, desperately in earnest, and cause us to be quiet and worshipful in the presence of God – E.M. Bounds – “The Necessity Of Prayer”
