To Him Who Knocks, The Door Is Opened

Wimmer Wednesday

“Like Noah’s ark, all sorts of creatures from everywhere gather under our roof. Often, too, useless creatures, who disappear after a while or get thrown out, come. To him who knocks, the door is opened. Some leave soon, others only after months. Some even return and are admitted again. Whoever stays is good.”
