Alphonsus Liguori Quotes
"The flowers have appeared in our land: the time of pruning is come: the voice of the turtle-dove is heard in our land."

... we did decide to trust Christ, but the reason we made that decision is that God had first made us spiritually alive. ... God comes to us when we're spiritually dead, when we don't even realize our condition, and gives us the spiritual ability to see our plight and to see the solution in Christ.
