Learn to obey before you command.

I have forced myself to contradict myself in order to avoid conforming to my own taste.

I have no taste for corruptible food nor for the pleasures of this life. I desire the Bread of God, which is the Flesh of Jesus Christ, who was of the seed of David, and for drink I desire His Blood, which is love incorruptible.

We can't command our love, but we can our actions.

It's hard to run away from who you are, and when your taste is formed is a very important thing.

Yield to temptation. It may not pass your way again.

You can do anything to my food and I'll still eat it.

When you feel like it's too hard to obey God, remember that He will never tell you to do something without giving you the grace, power and ability to do it.

If you command wisely, you'll be obeyed cheerfully.
