Here we stand, as an innumerable company before us have stood, at the last outpost of human endeavour, seeking God. We have done our utmost in the world, failing or succeeding, and now we stand within the sanctuary, before the Eternal, and what we have done or not done is swallowed up in mystery. We have worked, laying our wills against the world; now we worship, that God may lay his will against us. We have entered into the making of the world, but that is not enough; we desire God to enter into the making of our life.
Samuel H. Miller - The Life of the Church
