The Dwelling of God...


"'Where is The Dwelling Of God?'

This is the question with which the rabbi of Kotzk surprised a number of learned people who happened to be visiting him.

They laughed at him: 'What a thing to ask! Is not the whole world full of His glory?'

Then he answered his own question: 'God dwells wherever man lets him.'"
