“19Now devote your heart and soul to seeking the LORD your God.g Begin to build the sanctuary of the LORD God, so that you may bring the ark of the covenant of the LORD and the sacred articles belonging to God into the temple that will be built for the Name of the LORD.”
Anonymous, NIV Life Application Study Bible, Third Edition

Zac Poonen
“To hate our own life is to give up seeking our own rights and privileges, to stop seeking our own reputation, to forsake our own ambitions and interests, and to stop seeking our own way etc. We can be disciples of Jesus, only if we are willing to go this way.”
Zac Poonen, Practical Discipleship: The Christian Attitude to Earthly Matters

Viktor E. Frankl
“our current mental-hygiene philosophy stresses the idea that people ought to be happy, that unhappiness is a symptom of maladjustment. Such a value system might be responsible for the fact that the burden of unavoidable unhappiness is increased by unhappiness about being unhappy.”4”
Viktor E. Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning

Zac Poonen
“Jesus said “If anyone comes to Me, and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, he cannot be My disciple” (Luke 14:26). Those are strong words. What does it mean to ‘hate’? To hate is the same as to kill (1 John 3:15). What we are asked to put to death here is the natural affection that we have for our relatives.”
Zac Poonen, Practical Discipleship: The Christian Attitude to Earthly Matters
