Centre Quote by Emily Carr

“There is a need to go deeper, to let myself…” quote by Emily Carr — Download Open image

“There is a need to go deeper, to let myself go completely, to enter into the surroundings in the real fellowship of oneness, to lift above the outer shell, out into the depth and wideness where God is the recognized centre and everything is in time with everything, and the key-note is God.”
