If you want a religion to make you feel comfortable, I certainly don’t recommend Christianity.
– C.S. Lewis –
Until a humility which will rest in nothing less than the end and death of self; which gives up all the honor of men as Jesus did, to seek the honor that comes from God alone; which absolutely makes and counts itself nothing, that God may be all, that the Lord alone may be exalted – until such a humility be what we seek in Christ above our chief joy, and welcome at any price, there is very little hope of a religion that will conquer the world.
– CS Lewis –
The only things that we can keep are the things we freely give to God. What we try to keep for ourselves is just what we are sure to lose.
– CS Lewis –
The real test of being in the Presence of God is that you forget about yourself altogether.
– CS Lewis –
A man can no more diminish God’s glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word ‘darkness’ on the walls of his cell.
