Kates: you and heaven

Wednesday, May 23, 2018
    Commemoration of Petroc, Abbot of Padstow, 6th century
Meditation:
    May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
    —Romans 15:13 (NIV)
Quotation:
    The purpose of religion, at any rate, the Christian religion, is not to get you into heaven but to get heaven into you.
