"There is one spot on earth which can never be too richly adorned, and that is the sanctuary in which our Lord vouchsafes to dwell among us. Nothing is too good, nothing too beautiful, nothing too precious for God. He gives us all we possess, and the least we can do in return is to ornament that spot which He has chosen for His abode upon the earth. The Almighty, it is true, has no need of our gifts. He is rich without them. 'The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof' (Psalm 24:1). Nevertheless, He is pleased to accept our offerings when they are bestowed upon Him as a mark of our affection; just as a father joyfully receives from his child a present bought with his own means." - St. Sebastian Dabovich
Fr. John
