The Divine Wisdom Has Given Us Prayer,

What We Are, And Where We Are, Is God's Providential Arrange Ment — God's Doing, Though It May Be Man's Misdoing; And The Manly And The Wise Way Is To Look Your Disadvantages In The Face, And See What Can Be Made Out Of Them.

This Is The True Liberty Of Christ, When A Free Man Binds Himself In Love To Duty. Not In Shrinking From Our Distasteful Occupations, But In Fulfilling Them, Do We Realize Our High Origin.

Simpler Manners, Purer Lives; More Self-denial; More Earnest Sympathy With The Classes That Lie Below Us, Nothing Short Of That Can Lay The Foundations Of The Christianity Which Is To Be Hereafter, Deep And Broad.

My Christian Brethren, If The Crowd Of Difficulties Which Stand Between Your Souls And God Succeed In Keeping You Away, All Is Lost. Right Into The Presence You Must Force Your Way, With No Concealment, Baring The Soul With All Its Ailments Before Him, Asking, Not The Arrest Of The Consequences Of Sin, But The Cleansing Of The Conscience " From Dead Works To Serve The Living God," So That If You Must Suffer, You Will Suffer As A Forgiven Man.

Life, Like War, Is A Series Of Mistakes,he Is The Best Who Wins The Most Splendid Victories By The Retrieval Of Mistakes. Forget Mistakes: Organize Victory Out Of Mistakes.
