God will put up with a great many things in the human heart, but there is one thing that He will not put up with in it--a second place. He who offers God a second place, offers Him no place.

Heart, Great Men, Gods Will
John Ruskin, Louisa Caroline Tuthill (1865). “Precious Thoughts”, p.101
God will put up with a great many things in the human heart, but there is one thing that He will not put up with in it--a second place. He who offers God a second place, offers Him no place.
