Sermon Notes: Lewis on Weak Desires

Sunday I shared one of my favorite CS Lewis quotes taken from his sermon The Weight of Glory (read the entire sermon here). I want to share it again in this format.

It would seem that Our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased. -The Weight of Glory, 26
