Sanctifying grace is the Life of God dwelling in the soul of man. Our souls are tents in which the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit live. They sit around and have a conversation. In the middle is a low table, on which is a pitcher of iced tea and a small stack of clear plastic cups. In some sense it is obvious that each of us is a temple of God: we often say and hear things like, "the human spirit","Behold, the Kingdom of God is within you.", "the strength in each of us"... in homilies, we hear of tulip bulbs ingrained with the knowledge necessary to grow into a beautiful flower, of old ladies who instinctively let a person make a right turn onto the road.
All of the Saints speak of it to some degree. How could they not? It's the deepest thread of the Bible, a constant topic, which litters and can be found everywhere in the Bible...
