"Never soul was set free without being made to feel it's slavery." -George Macdonald.
"You have a disagreeable duty to do at twelve o'clock. Do not blacken nine and ten and eleven, and all between, with the color of twelve. Do the work of each, and reap your reward in peace. So when the dreaded moment in the future becomes the present, you shall meet it walking in the light, and that light will overcome its darkness." -George Macdonald
"You can want freedom from your issues not for the sake of holiness leading to intimacy with God, but for the sake of having a happier life. Then your motive behind all your Christian striving is pure sin...God in his grace, will not remove all of your issues. If he did, you would be as pure as an angel and proud as a demon. You have to balance a zero-tolerance policy toward sin in your life with a daily dependence on God's grace -- rather than simply desiring a once-and-for-all deliverance from all your issues. At the root of that desire to be free is often nothing more than a desire for a happy life, and a desire to be holy on your own, independent of God." -Will Leitch
