The nearer a man lives to God, the more intensely has he to mourn over his own evil heart." -Charles Spurgeon
Do what you may, strive as earnestly as you can, live as excellently as you please, make what sacrifices you choose, be as eminent as you can for everything that is lovely and of good repute, yet none of these things can be pleaseing to God unless they be mixed with faith.
