George MacDonald

“The injunction is not to hide what you do from others, but to hide it from yourself. The Master would have you not plume yourself upon it, not cherish the thought that you have done it, or confer with yourself in satisfaction over it. You must not count it to your praise. A man must not desire to be satisfied with himself. His right hand must not seek the praise of his left hand.”

George MacDonald, The Hope of the Gospel: Exploring Faith, Redemption, and Hope in the Gospel
