“You never know how much you really believe anything until it’s truth or false. It becomes a matter of life and death to you. It is easy to say you believe a rope to be strong and sound as long as you are merely using it to cord a box. But suppose you had to hang by that rope over a precipice. Wouldn’t you then first discover how much you really trusted it?”
― C.S. Lewis

“You must recognize that anything you might accomplish or acquire in this world is already fading away. Only then will you crave the unfading glory of what Jesus has accomplished and acquired for you. And you need to recognize you were going to lose everything you love in this world before you will hope and an inheritance kept in heaven for you. even if your life plays out precisely the way for yourself and your wildest dreams, death will steal away everything you have and destroy everything you accomplish”
― McCollough Matthew
