I found this in my planner last week...
Growth demands a temporary surrender of security. - Gail Sheehy

This is SO true. If we expect to grow in our Christian walk, we have to be willing to give up whatever it is that's holding us back. Whether it be a weakness to continue falling into the trap of the same old sins over and over again, or be it completely giving up the worldly lifestyle we are so familiar with, this is what we're comfortable doing and so its going to be hard to make a change. But if we excpect to become closer to God, we have to make this step.
