The way most people act, to know and love God is a scandal. They think he is hungrier than a common beggar at their door, easy to satisfy with a handful of any kind of offering. Oh, no; he cannot be fooled by little sacrifices when desire for earthly results stalk through men’s thoughts and dreams like herds of elephants through a jungle. And do you think you can satisfy God by presenting him with a fraction of your self? He, being infinite, will not accept anything but the infinite in you.”
