Peace Does Not Dwell In

Had We Not Faults Of Our Own, We Should Take Less Pleasure In Complaining Of Others.

True Piety Hath In It Nothing Weak, Nothing Sad, Nothing Constrained. It Enlarges The Heart; It Is Simple, Free, And Attractive.

As A General Rule, Those Truths Which We Highly Relish, And Which Shed A Degree Of Practical Light Upon The Things Which We Are Required To Give Up For God, Are Leadings Of Divine Grace, Which We Should Follow Without Hesitation.

O God, The Creature Knows Not To What End Thou Hast Made Him; Teach Him, And Write In The Depths Of His Soul That The Clay Must Suffer Itself To Be Shaped At The Will Of The Potter.

When Tempted, The Shortest And Surest Way Is To Act Like A Little Child At The Breast; When We Show It A Frightful Monster, It Shrinks Back And Buries Its Face In Its Mother's Bosom, That It May No Longer Behold It.
