Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.”
― C.S. Lewis

I love Him because He first loved me. —1 JOHN 4:17-19 (NKJV)” 
― Joyce Meyer

“If at First You Do Succeed, Try Something Harder”
