The Secret of Self-Denial

…Self-denial is such a small price to pay for the incredible delights of loving communion with our Lord.

Self-denial can serve as a catalyst to help propel you forward into greater joys of intimacy in the secret place. Self-denial and intimacy of hand in hand. Self-denial awakens the flow of life and love in the secret place.

Self-denial is the deliberate curtailing of healthy passions and desires for the sake of pursuing Jesus harder.

Self-denial is Christ’s gift to us that enables us to turn up the furnace of our love seven times hotter.
