(seen at the journey)

“Conversion is not the smooth, easy-going process some men seem to think…It is wounding work, of course this breaking of hearts, but without wounding there is not saving. Where there is grafting there is cutting the scion must be let in with the wound; to stick it on the outside or to tie it on with a string would be of no use. Heart must be sent to heart and back to back, or there will be not sap from root to branch, and this I say must be done by a wound.”


John Bunyan, The Excellency of a Broken Heart
