are held intricately bound to one another.
Prayer is bound to love, and love to joy.
Joy avails meekness, and meekness feeds humility.
Humility leads to service, just as service offers hope.
Hope shores up our faith, and faith obtains obedience,
which becomes a newfound liberty.

Uncommonly beautiful. Especially this: "Obedience becomes a new found liberty"
