Many people falsely believe that if you want to be holy, you are not allowed to enjoy life...Holiness brings us to life. It refines every human ability. Holiness doesn't dampen our emotions; it elevates them. Those who respond to God's call to holiness are the most joyful people in history. They have a richer, more abundant experience of life, and they love more deeply than most people can every imagine. They enjoy life, all of life.
Matthew KellyThe notion of freedom proclaimed by the modern world is anti-discipline. But true freedom cannot be separated from discipline.
Matthew KellyNever believe a promise from a man or woman who has no discipline. They have broken a thousand promises to themselves, and they break their promise for you.
Matthew KellyTruth be told, our modern education systems crush the very spirit they claim to instill.
