About This Quote

The measure of a Christian is not in the height of his grasp but in the depth of his love. This quote is one of my favorite quotes because it reminds me of how I want to be a Christian. I want to be a Christian who shows love to everyone around me. I want to be a Christian who shows others that I care about them. I want to be a Christian who loves everyone around me without expecting anything in return.
