It is always just possible that Jesus Christ meant what he said when He told us to seek the secret place and to close the door.”
C.S. Lewis

“If you are joyful, do not worry about lukewarmness. Joy will shine in your eyes and in your look, in your conversation and in your countenance. You will not be able to hide it because joy overflows.”
