If you think it, it becomes a dream.
If you write it down, it becomes a plan.
If you tell someone, it becomes a commitment!
I started keeping a notebook a few years ago which is simply titled, "My Quote Book." The notebook contains quotes, thoughts, and poems on subjects of various topics. I would like for this blog to be a place to inspire, and uplift not only myself, but all those who visit my Oasis. I hope you enjoy!

Be the House.....
C.S. Lewis - Mere Christianity, pg 174
"Imagine yourself as a living house. God comes in to rebuild that house. At first, perhaps, you can understand what He is doing. He is getting the drains right and stopping the leaks in the roof and so on: you knew those jobs needed doing and so you are not surprised. But presently, He starts knocking the house about in a way that hurts abominably and does not seem to make sense. What on earth is He up to? The explanation is that He is building quite a different house from the one you thought of --- throwing out a new wing here, putting on an extra floor there, running up towers, making courtyards. You thought you were going to be made into a decent little cottage: but He is building a palace."
