"We are all designed to be a burden to others. You are designed to be a burden to me and I am designed to be a burden to you. And the life of the family, including the life of the local church family, should be one of “mutual burdensomeness.” “Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ” (Galatians 6:2)."
John Stott, The Radical Disciple (via martinkang)
"
When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;
How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;
And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.
William Yeats, When You Are Old (via eternalweightofglory)
"You cannot make yourself feel something you do not feel, but you can make yourself do right in spite of your feelings."
Pearl S. Buck (via divine-despair)
"The point is that when you do love a thing, its gladness is a reason for loving it, and its sadness a reason for loving it more."
