― Hannah Hurnard, Hinds' Feet on High Places
"Outwardly, I was a person of service, sacrifice, self-discipline, and apparent loyalty. But inwardly, I was filled with spiritual ambition
-- the earnest desire for some achievement and distinction and the willingness to strive to achieve it. I had an insatiable desire to be seen and counted among the mature and successful. This resulted in a deep inner struggle with competition, rivalry, and jealousy, and left me with an ever-pervading sense of restlessness--the feeling that there is something more that I have to do or put in order to feel valued, affirmed, accepted, or like I belong.
