Do you cry, "Can I be perfect?" Have faith in God and say in His name, "If perfect holiness is possible, I will have it. If it can be reached on earth, I will reach it." All that the Spirit of God can make out of such a poor sinner as I am it is my desire that He should make. I gladly submit myself and all that I have to His gracious operation. I would like to hear you say, "I must rise to a higher condition. I must be more Christlike. I must have less and less of self." May we be burning with an insatiable desire to be holy, and may we say with the inspired penman, "I opened my mouth, and panted: for I longed for thy commandments."
A Passion For Holiness, Charles Spurgeon
