Read this quote by C.S. Lewis and post a comment on what your initial reactions are after reading it =)
.............................................................................................................
The Christian way is different: harder, and easier.
Christ says, "Give me ALL. I don't want so much of your time and so much of your money and so much of your work: I WANT YOU. I have not come to torture your natural self, but TO KILL IT.
No half-measures are any good.
I don't want to cut off a branch here and a branch there. I want to have the whole tree down.
I don't want to drill the tooth, or crown it, or stop it, but to have it out.
Hand over the whole natural self, all the desires which you think innocent as well as the ones you think wicked- the whole outfit.
I will give you a new self instead.
In fact, I will give you MYSELF. MY OWN SHALL BECOME YOURS."
C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity
