a hill of ice

“The Christian life
is very much like climbing a hill of ice.
You cannot slide up.
You have to cut every step with an ice axe.
Only with incessant labor in cutting
and chipping can you make any progress.
If you want to know how to backslide,
leave off going forward.
Cease going upward
and you will go downward of necessity.
You can never stand still.”
- C.H. Spurgeon
“Following the path of least resistance
is what makes rivers and men crooked.”
