"Am I getting nobler, better, more helpful, more humble, as I get older? Am I exhibiting the life that men take knowledge of as having been with Jesus, or am I getting more self-assertive, more deliberately determined to have my own way? It is a great thing to tell yourself the truth."

- The Place of Help, Oswald Chambers

I don’t think you can be completely honest with anyone else if you don’t start being one with yourself first. To have things your own way, man, that would surely ruin the plans for you.
