Zeal Without Knowledge Is Like

God Sometimes Does His Work With Gentle Drizzle, Not Storms.

Assurance Grows By Repeated Conflict, By Our Repeated Experimental Proof Of The Lord's Power And Goodness To Save; When We Have Been Brought Very Low And Helped, Sorely Wounded And Healed, Cast Down And Raised Again, Have Given Up All Hope, And Been Suddenly Snatched From Danger, And Placed In Safety; And When These Things Have Been Repeated To Us And In Us A Thousand Times Over, We Begin To Learn To Trust Simply To The Word And Power Of God, Beyond And Against Appearances: And This Trust, When Habitual And Strong, Bears The Name Of Assurance; For Even Assurance Has Degrees.

I Am Persuaded That Love And Humility Are The Highest Attainments In The School Of Christ And The Brightest Evidences That He Is Indeed Our Master.

The Midsummer Sun Shines But Dim, The Fields Strive In Vain To Look Gay; But When I Am Happy In Him December's As Pleasant As May.

Our Work Is Great; Our Time Is Short; The Consequences Of Our Labors Are Infinite.
