The Church Speaks: The Dwelling Place

"The heart is 
the dwelling place 
where I am, 
where I live; 
according to 
the Semitic or 
Biblical expression, 
the heart is the place
'to which I withdraw.'  
The heart is 
our hidden center, 
beyond the grasp 
of our reason 
and of others; 
only 
the Spirit of God 
can fathom 
the human heart 
and know it fully.  
The heart is 
the place
of decision.." 

Catechism
of the Catholic Church # 2563
