simple spirituality.

so beginning of the school year i made a goal to read a book a month and although it has been hard to keep up with all the books and school work, God is gracious and has given me time to read :) even though i might have missed a month of reading… so just finished this book that i bought at urbana for $5! and wanted to share a quote (it’s actually a quote from another author…)
“what we call temptation is not meant to make us sin; it is meant to enable us to conquer sin. it is not meant to make us bad, it is meant to make us good. it is not meant to weaken us, it is meant to make us emerge stronger and finer and purer for the ordeal. temptation is not the penalty of being [human], temptation is the glory of being [human]. it is the test which comes to a [person] whom God wishes to use.”
