Oh! One Hour With God Infinitely Exceeds

I Longed That Those Who, I Have Reason To Think, Owe Me Ill Will, Might Be Eternally Happy. It Seemed Refreshing To Think Of Meeting Them In Heaven, How Much Soever They Had Injured Me On Earth: Had No Disposition To Insist Upon Any Confession From Them, In Order To Reconciliation, And The Exercise Of Love And Kindness To Them. Oh! It Is An Emblem Of Heaven Itself, To Love All The World With A Love Of Kindness, Forgiveness, And Benevolence.

Thirsting Desires And Longings Possessed My Soul After Perfect Holiness. God Was So Precious To My Soul That The World With All Its Enjoyments Appeared Vile. I Had No More Value For The Favor Of Men Than For Pebbles.

I Bless God For This Retirement: I Never Was More Thankful For Any Thing Than I Have Been Of Late For The Necessity I Am Under Of Self-denial In Many Respects.

Toward Night, I Felt My Soul Rejoice, That God Is Unchangeable Happy And Glorious And That He Will Be Glorified, Whatever Becomes Of His Creatures.

The Lord Help Me To Press After God Forever
