Inspirational-religious Quote by L.F.Linnenkamp
““Too many persons get totally lost in the gifts that God has given us. Their wild enthusiasm for heavenly things often blinds them to the reality of God Himself. All the gifts were designed only to draw us closer to God. Frequently, they become another impenetrable barrier to any kind of a meaningful relationship with Him.””
