Radical call

Many people abandon themselves, quite successfully, to certain encounters with the cross; but refuse to abandon themselves to all such encounters. One thing they can never prevail on themselves to allow: that their reputation, in the sight of men, be taken away. and yet it is here, at this point and similar points, where God is aiming. He will bring you even there! And expect of you...no bitterness!

Your Lord intends for your soul to really die to the ways of the self nature!&mash;Jeanne Guyon
