As A Tender And Loving Friend Is

It Is Not The Glorious Battlements, The Painted Windows, The Crouching Gargoyles That Support A Building, But The Stones That Lie Unseen In Or Upon The Earth. It Is Often Those Who Are Despised And Trampled On That Bear Up The Weight Of A Whole Nation.

We Must Not Be Concerned Only With That Which Troubles Us, But With All That Troubles God.

Temptation Gains Power By Persistent Solicitations That Beget Thoughts That Make Evil Less Serious

On Christ’s Glory I Would Fix All My Thoughts And Desires, And The More I See Of The Glory Of Christ, The More The Painted Beauties Of This World Will Wither In My Eyes And I Will Be More And More Crucified To This World. It Will Become To Me Like Something Dead And Putrid, Impossible For Me To Enjoy.

A Natural Man Hath No Such Thing As Free-will At All, If You Take It For A Power Of Doing That Which Is Good And Well-pleasing Unto God In Things Spiritual.
