One Who Views Thing As They Are

Every Man Naturally Desires Knowledge; But What Good Is Knowledge Without Fear Of God? Indeed A Humble Rustic Who Serves God Is Better Than A Proud Intellectual Who Neglects His Soul To Study The Course Of The Stars.

Set Me Free From Evil Passions, And Heal My Heart Of All Inordinate Affections; That Being Inwardly Cured And Thoroughly Cleansed, I May Be Made Fit To Love, Courageous To Suffer, Steady To Persevere.

For Nothing, How Little Soever, That Is Suffered For God's Sake, Can Pass Without Merit In The Sight Of God.

Anyone Who Thinks Hard Work Will Never Hurt You Has Never Had To Pay To Have It Done. Jesus Now Has Many Lovers Of His Heavenly Kingdom, But Few Bearers Of His Cross.

Love Feels No Burden, Thinks Nothing Of Trouble, Attempts What Is Above Its Strength.... It Is Therefore Able To Undertake All Things, And It Completes Many Things, And Warrants Them To Take Effect, Where He Who Does Not Love Would Faint And Lie Down.
