Self-Renunciation

“Men shall be lovers of self.”
— 2 Tim. 3:2 (New Translation).

“We have the privilege to have done with ourselves in the house and bosom of God.”

“Our own will and making ourselves the centre is the spring of all our wretchedness; for outward circumstances may be trying — may give sorrow, but not wretchedness — where this is it is the fruit of will, restless and discontented.”
