Basilea Schlink Quotes
How different the world would look, how different the state of our nation would be, if there were more sanctified priestly souls!

They never begin their daily time of intercessory prayer without having first brought to the cross all that is unholy in their lives, so that their old self can be crucified there with Jesus, the sacrificial Lamb.
