"Do something beautiful for God: let someone feel the rich warmth of your love. You will be revealing something of God thereby. God, to be sure, is Love and you must not be content merely to say so but in your actions you must bear that same witness. Actions speak louder than words. - this is as true when you are trying to bring God home to people as at any other time".
