Our free will is never so free as when it is a slave to the will of God, nor ever so much a slave as when it serves our own will. It never has so much life as when it dies to itself, nor ever so much death as when it lives to itself.

Most of my posts are written months in advance (this one included). I suppose that makes it even more of a ‘coincidence’. =)
