    God dwells within humanity, not in temples or distant hills. Christians should find God by helping those in need, such as nursing the suffering or filling beggars' bowls, rather than despising fellow humans or prioritizing prayer, temples, or dead saints over living people. True worship of God comes from loving other living people as they are the living stones of God's temple on Earth.

    God in man (Sonnet)

    My soul is like a thirsting deer


    Awaiting the Lord’s great Advent,
    In the life of every Christian, THE EVENT
    But never comes He as long as I, at my fellow human beings, sneer.
    Should we find God on distant hills or in the hearts of men?
    Should temples be built, destroying the life of man?
    Which does He favour-a long prayer or nursing a suffering man?
    Should the dead saints be honoured by torturing living men?
    Love men alive than worship the saints dead;
    Find God in living images than in the dumb deities;
    Let’s not despise the fellow beings that belong to us.
    For ‘Man is the living stone of God’s temple.’ St.Peter said,
    Fill the beggar’s bowl than the temple’s hundies
    Then comes God to dwell in us!
