"Nothing disciplines the inordinate desires of the flesh……" — Richard J. Foster

Nothing disciplines the inordinate desires of the flesh like service, and nothing… - Richard J. Foster
"Nothing disciplines the inordinate desires of the flesh like service, and nothing transforms the desires of the flesh like serving in hiddenness. The flesh whines against service but screams against hidden service. It strains and pulls for honour and recognition. It will devise subtle, religiously acceptable means to call attention to the service rendered. If we stoutly refuse to give in to this lust of the flesh, we crucify it. Every time we crucify the flesh, we crucify our pride and arrogance."
