"If your desire to do that which is right did not propel you down this path you now tread,
If your passion for that which is good, virtuous and righteous did not impel your steps,
If the commitment to follow after and pursue the One whom you love did not inform your decision...
Then by what were you enticed to pursue this road?
What lust has carried you away in subjection to its desires?
And can you yet bare the burden it has laid upon you?
Subjection and submission express the perpetual condition of mankind.
Either you will joyfully submit to that which is asked of you for your good,
or in waywardness you will become a servant to that which defiles and denigrates your soul." - Jimmie Hopper
"Take My yoke upon you and learn fromMe , for I am gentle and humble in heart,
and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light".
(Matthew 11:29-30)
