"Paint your house with the colors of modesty and humility.
Make it radiant with the light of justice.
Decorate it with the finest gold leaf of good deeds.
Adorn it with the walls and stones of faith and generosity.
Crown it with the pinnacle of prayer.
In this way you will make it a perfect dwelling place for the Lord.
You will be able to receive Him as in a splendid palace,
and through His grace
you will already possess him,
His image enthroned in the temple of your spirit."
