Death and Spirituality

“The outflow of the Spirit depends upon death to self.”
-Donald Gee

"We Are Not Our Own"

“We are not our own: therefore let neither our will nor our reason determine what we plan and do. We are not our own: therefore let us, as much as we can, forget ourselves and everything that is ours. On the contrary, we are God’s: therefore let his wisdom and will rule all that we do.”
-John Calvin
