“You were always by me, mercifully hard upon me, and besprinkling all my illicit pleasures with certain elements of bitterness, to draw me on to seek for pleasures in which no bitterness should be. And where was I to find such pleasure save in You O Lord, You who use sorrow to teach, and wound us to heal, and kill us lest we die to You."

I know you don’t care about my progress on this book, but I’ve got to post these quotes:
"But let my soul praise Thee that it may love Thee, and let it tell Thee Thy mercies that it may praise Thee."

This is one of my favorite books and I’m very much looking forward to this re-read. Two quotes from today that stand out:
1. "For Thou has made us for Thyself and our hearts are restless till they rest in Thee.”
2. "Let me see Thy face even if I die, lest I die with longing to see it."
