When a little child becomes conscious of being a little child, the child-likeness is gone; and when a saint becomes conscious of being a saint, something has gone wrong.
Oswald Chambers
So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day.
2 Corinthians 4:16
The English Standard Version
A lie is like a snowball. The longer it is rolled on the ground the larger it becomes.
Martin Luther
