When He Leave Us No Rest

“But above everything else we can feel the beginnings of a strong drawing of God in our hearts when he leaves us no rest and weans us from earthly vanities, and mystically inspires us with a sense of necessity which compels us to take deeper interests in the higher things of life and makes us grow and expand in them with continual refreshings.”

– Abraham Kuyper, from ch. 7 of To Be Near Unto God
