"If you love someone or something enough, the expenditure of energy isn't seen as a chore.  It's a privilege.  It's not something you have to do, it's something you get to do.  Love turns work into worship."
Primal by Mark Batterson p. 137

"Pray like it depends on God and work like it depends on you."

"we practice holiness by subtraction.  'Don't do this.  Don't do that.  And you're okay.'  But the problem with that approach is this: you can do nothing wrong and still do nothing right.  Goodness is not the absence of badness.  And righteousness means more than doing nothing wrong.  It means doing something right."
