Holiness has never been the driving force of the majority. It is, however, mandatory for anyone who wants to enter the kingdom.
Elisabeth ElliotWhen obedience to God contradicts what I think will give me pleasure, let me ask myself if I love Him.
Elisabeth ElliotWork is a blessing. God has so arranged the world that work is necessary, and He gives us hands and strength to do it. The enjoyment of leisure would be nothing if we had only leisure. It is the joy of work well done that enables us to enjoy rest, just as it is the experiences of hunger and thirst that make food and drink such pleasures.
Elisabeth Elliot
