The Charges We Bring Against Others Often

Who Would Have Believed That The Daughters Of That Mighty City Would One Day Be Wandering As Servants And Slaves On The Shores Of Egypt And Africa, Or That Bethlehem Would Daily Receive Noble Romans, Distinguished Ladies, Brought Up In Wealth And Now Reduced To Beggary? I Cannot Help Them All, But I Grieve And Weep With Them, And Am Completely Absorbed In The Duties Which Charity Imposes On Me. I Have Put Aside My Commentary On Ezekiel And Almost All Study. For Today We Must Translate The Precepts Of The Scriptures Into Deeds; Instead Of Speaking Saintly Words, We Must Act Them.

Let Us Learn Upon Earth Those Things Which Can Call Us To Heaven.

We Must Love Christ And Always Seek Christ's Embraces. Then Everything Difficult Will Seem Easy.

Keep Doing Some Kind Of Work, That The Devil May Always Find You Employed.

Let Your Daughter Have First Of All The Book Of Psalms For Holiness Of Heart, And Be Instructed In The Proverbs Of Solomon For Her Godly Life.
