Humility Is A Necessary Veil To All

Furnish Thyself With Arguments From The Promises To Enforce Thy Prayers, And Make Them Prevalent With God. The Promises Are The Ground Of Faith, And Faith, When Strengthened, Will Make Thee Fervent, And Such Fervency Ever Speeds And Returns With Victory Out Of The Field Of Prayer. The Mightier Any Is In The Word, The More Mighty He Will Be In Prayer.

The Possessions God Allows Us To Have Are Intended For Our Use, Not Our Enjoyment. Trying To Squeeze Something Out Of Them That Was Never In Them In The First Place Is A Futile Endeavor. A Cow's Udders, Gently Pressed, Will Yield Sweet Milk, Nourishing And Refreshing. Applying More And More Pressure Will Not Produce Greater Quantities Of Milk. We Lose The Good Of Material Things By Expecting Too Much From Them. Those Who Try Hardest To Please Themselves With Earthly Goods Find The Least Satisfaction In Them.

Therefore Tremble, O Man, At Any Power Thou Hast, Except Thou Usest It For God. Art Thou Strong In Body; Who Hath Thy Strength? God, Or Thy Lusts?

We Need Not Borrow And Take Up Sorrows Upon Use Of The Morrow, To Make Up Our Present Load; As We Read Of Daily Bread, So Of A Daily Cross, Luke Ix. M, Which We Are Bid To Take, Not To Make.

Cease To Pray And Thou Will Begin To Sin.
