Do you mortify? Do you make it your daily work? Be always at it whilst you live; cease not a day from this work; be killing sin or it will be killing you.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I never get to the end of mortifying sin because sin in my heart, where it's still marauding even though it's no longer dominant, sin in my heart is constantly expressing itself in new disorderly desires.
With my writing, because I live it, I have to be consumed by it, and that means you have to forget your other life, which is constantly pulling you from your work.
Housework, if you do it right, will kill you.
I continue to do something I've done since I was 18, and that is read a chapter of Proverbs every day as part of my daily devotion. I still maintain that.
Brethren, it is easier to declaim against a thousand sins of others, than to mortify one sin in ourselves.
I make preparations both to live and to die every day, but with the emphasis on not dying, and on acting as if I was going to carry on living.
I work with the dead, but I am working for the living.
I do some of my best work when I'm dead.
Work is a prayer. And I start off every morning dedicating it to our Creator.
