"But true discipline is a far cry from legalism- thank God! The difference lies in motivation: Legalism is self-centered; discipline is God-centered. The legalistic heart says, 'I will do this thing to gain merit with God.' The disciplined hearts says, 'I will do this because I love God and want to please Him.' "
From "Disciplines of a Godly woman" by Barbara Hughes
