There Is No More Dangerous

Trouble And Perplexity Drive Me To Prayer, And Prayer Drives Away Perplexity And Trouble.

Nothing Is More False And More Indiscreet Than Always To Want To Choose What Mortifies Us In Everything. By This Rule A Person Would Soon Ruin His Health, His Business, His Reputation, His Relations With His Relatives And Friends, In Fact Every Good Work Which Providence Gives Him.

The Realization Of God's Presence Is The One Sovereign Remedy Against Temptation.

I Am Not In The Least Surprised That Your Impression Of Death Becomes More Lively, In Proportion As Age And Infirmity Bring It Nearer. God Makes Use Of This Rough Trial To Undeceive Us In Respect To Our Courage, To Make Us Feel Our Weakness, And To Keep Us In All Humility In His Hands.

We May Be Sure That It Is The Love Of God Only That Can Make Us Come Out Of Self. If His Powerful Hand Did Not Sustain Us, We Should Not Know How To Take The First Step In That Direction.
