To be converted is to transfer our life’s centre of gravity from ourselves to God, to free ourselves from ourselves, to break with our self-sufficient and selfish nature, and to seek our supreme satisfaction not in ourselves but in him.
Christoph Luthardt
Thus says the Lord: “Keep justice, and do righteousness, for soon my salvation will come, and my deliverance be revealed. Blessed is the man who does this, and the son of man who holds it fast, who keeps the sabbath, not profaning it, and keeps his hand from doing any evil.”
Isaiah 56:1-2
The Revised Standard Version
Afflictions are the steps to heaven.
Elizabeth Ann Seton
