While Extremely Sensitive As To The Slightest

We Are Sometimes So Busy Being Good Angels That We Neglect To Be Good Men And Women.

Let The Enemy Rage At The Gate; Let Him Knock, Pound, Scream, Howl; Let Him Do His Worst. We Know For Certain That He Cannot Enter Our Soul Except By The Door Of Our Consent.

In Everything, Love Simplicity.

Represent To Yourself A Dark City All Burning And Stinking With Fire And Brimstone. The Damned Are In The Depth Of Hell Within This Woful City, Where They Suffer Unspeakable Torments In All Their Senses And Members. Consider Above All The Eternity Of Their Pains, Which Above All Things Makes Hell Intolerable.

Do Not Look Forward To The Changes And Chances Of This Life In Fear; Rather Look To Them With Full Hope That, As They Arise, God, Whose You Are, Will Deliver You Out Of Them. He Is Your Keeper. He Has Kept You Hitherto. Do You But Hold Fast To His Dear Hand, And He Will Lead You Safely Through All Things; And, When You Cannot Stand, He Will Bear You In His Arms. Do Not Look Forward To What May Happen Tomorrow. Our Father Will Either Shield You From Suffering, Or He Will Give You Strength To Bear It.
