“The heart of the world is breaking under this load of pride and pretense. There is no release from our burden apart from the meekness of Christ.”
― A.W. Tozer, The Pursuit of God

“The essence of what the Bible calls sin is the exaltation of self. God has designed us to put him first in our lives, others next, and ourselves last. Yet sin reverses that order: we put ourselves first, others next (many times in an attempt to use them for ourselves), and God somewhere (if anywhere) in the distant background. We turn from worshiping God to worshiping self.”
