If We Would Talk Less And Pray

Before The Work Of Grace The Heart Is ‘stony.’ It Can Do No More Than A Stone Can Do To Please God.

No Heart Can Conceive That Treasury Of Mercies Which Lies In This One Privilege, In Having Liberty And Ability To Approach Unto God At All Times, According To His Mind And Will.

I Wish Thy Lot, Now Bad, Still Worse, My Friend, For When At Worst, They Say, Things Always Mend.

In The Divine Scriptures, There Are Shallows And There Are Deeps; Shallows Where The Lamb May Wade, And Deeps Where The Elephant May Swim.

He, Then, That Would Really, Thoroughly, And Acceptably Mortify Any Disquieting Lust, Let Him Take Care To Be Equally Diligent In All Parts Of Obedience, And Know That Every Lust, Every Omission Of Duty, Is Burdensome To God, Though But One Is So To Him.
