“To say yes to Jesus's invitation is to say no to a thousand other things. As the monks used to say, ‘Every choice is a renunciation.’ To say yes to Jesus is to say no to living by my own definition of good and evil... It's a thousand tiny deaths that all lead up to one massive life.”
-John Mark Comer, Live No Lies

“The question is not what we intended ourselves to be, but what He intended us to be when He made us.”
-C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity
