Discipline


This quote was in a devotional I read this morning. I like it.

Discipline is the ability to say "no" to what is sin, "yes" to what is right, and to say "I will" to what ought to be done. Jerry White

And this is from an email devotional I get. (Elisabeth Elliot)

Lead me, Lord, to the Rock that is higher than I. Let me hear your word, give me grace to obey, to build steadily, stone upon stone, day by day, to do what You say. Establish my heart where floods have no power to overwhelm, for Christ's sake. Amen.

I don't remember where I got the Jerry White quote. I get emial devotionals from Charles Stanley and David Jeremiah. It was probably in one of these.
