Do not any longer contend for mastery, for power, money, or praise. Be content to be a private, insignificant person, known and loved by God and me....of what importance is your character to mankind, if you was buried just now. Or if you had never lived, what loss would it be to the cause of God.
John WesleyOnce in seven years I burn all my sermons; for it is a shame, if I cannot write better sermons now than I did seven years ago.
