Rennovation of the heart


For the third time (apparently it didn't work the first two times) I'm reading the book Renovation of the Heart by Dallas Willard. The book is one of those that you have to digest in small chunks, full of things that push me and stretch me in at the deepest levels. Willard is a philosopher and writes in such a way that every sentence is full of meat. I came across one sentance today that I especially liked:

...one has to strongly want to not want what one now wants and to want to want what one does not now want....

Brilliant. I guess.
