Fear God And Work Hard.

Though There Is Antipathy In The Human Heart To The Gospel Of Christ, Yet When Christians Make Their Good Work Shine, All Admire Them. It Is When Great Disparity Exists Between Profession And Practice That We Secure The Scorn Of Mankind.

Remember Us In Your Prayers That We Grow Not Weary In Well Doing. It Is Hard To Work For Years With Pure Motives, And All The Time Be Looked Upon By Most Of Those To Whom Our Lives Are Devoted As Having Some Sinister Object In View. Disinterested Labor - Benevolence - Is So Out Of Their Line Of Thought, That Many Look Upon Us As Having Some Ulterior Object In View; But He Who Died For Us, And Whom We Ought To Copy, Did More For Us Than We Can Do For Any One Else. He Endured The Contradiction Of Sinners. We Should Have Grace To Follow In His Steps.

If Success Attend Me, Grant Me Humility; If Failure, Resignation To Thy Will.

I Saw The Duty And Inestimable Privilege _immediately_ To Accept Salvation By Christ. Humbly Believing That Through Sovereign Mercy And Grace I Have Been Enabled So To Do, And Having Felt In Some Measure Its Effects On My Still Depraved And Deceitful Heart, It Is My Desire To Show My Attachment To The Cause Of Him Who Died For Me By Devoting My Life To His Service.

Anywhere, Provided It Be Forward-- Farther Still Farther Into The Night.
