The Most Tremendous Judgment Of God In

It Is Not The Glorious Battlements, The Painted Windows, The Crouching Gargoyles That Support A Building, But The Stones That Lie Unseen In Or Upon The Earth. It Is Often Those Who Are Despised And Trampled On That Bear Up The Weight Of A Whole Nation.

We Speak Much Of God, Can Talk Of Him, His Ways, His Works, His Counsels, All The Day Long; The Truth Is, We Know Very Little Of Him.

The Custom Of Sinning Takes Away The Sense Of It, The Course Of The World Takes Away The Shame Of It.

Steadfastness In Believing Doth Not Exclude All Temptations From Without. When We Say A Tree Is Firmly Rooted, We Do Not Say The Wind Never Blows Upon It.

Mortification Is The Soul's Vigorous Opposition To Self, Wherein Sincerity Is Most Evident.
