Where Has The Scripture Made Merit The

Let Every Creature Have Your Love. Love, With Its Fruits Of Meekness, Patience, And Humility, Is All That We Can Wish For Ourselves And Our Fellow Creatures. For This Is To Live In God, United With Him, Both For Time And Eternity. To Desire To Communicate Good To Everyone, In The Degree That We Can And To Which Each Person Is Capable Of Receiving From Us, Is A Divine Temper, For Thus God Stands Unchangeably Disposed Towards The Whole Creation.

This New Birth In Christ, Thus Firmly Believed And Continually Desired, Will Do Everything That Thou Wantest To Have Done In Thee, It Will Dry Up All The Springs Of Vice, Stop All The Workings Of Evil In Thy Nature, It Will Bring All That Is Good Into Thee, It Will Open All The Gospel Within Thee, And Thou Wilt Know What It Is To Be Taught Of God.

Receive Every Day As A Resurrection From Death, As A New Enjoyment Of Life; Meet Every Rising Sun With Such Sentiments Of God's Goodness, As If You Had Seen It, And All Things, New-created Upon Your Account: And Under The Sense Of So Great A Blessing, Let Your Joyful Heart Praise And Magnify So Good And Glorious A Creator.

Devotion Signifies A Life Given, Or Devoted, To God. He Therefore Is The Devout Man, Who Lives No Longer To His Own Will, Or The Way And Spirit Of The World, But To The Sole Will Of God, Who Considers God In Everything, Who Serves God In Everything, Who Makes All The Parts Of His Common Life, Parts Of Piety, By Doing Everything In The Name Of God, And Under Such Rules As Are Conformable To His Glory.

You Have No Questions To Ask Of Any Body, No New Way That You Need Inquire After; No Oracle That You Need To Consult; For Whilst You Shut Yourself Up In Patience, Meekness, Humility, And Resignation To God, You Are In The Very Arms Of Christ, Your Heart Is His Dwelling-place, And He Lives And Works In You.
