There Can Be But One Will The

Sincerity Carries The Soul In All Simplicity To Open Its Heart To God.

The Name Of The Slough Was Despond.

If Thou Hast Sinned, Lie Not Down Without Repentance; For The Want Of Repentance, After One Has Sinned, Makes The Heart Yet Harder And Harder.

The Swamp Of Despond Is That Place Set Before The Narrow Gate Where True And False Pilgrims Alike Are Assaulted By Their Own Internal Corruption And Pollution. The Dirt And Scum That Has Attached Itself To Our Hearts And Minds Is Agitated And Revealed By Both The Workings Of A Guilty Conscience And The Devouring Avarice Of The Enemy Of Our Souls.the

Let Dissolution Come When It Will, It Can Do The Christian No Harm, For It Will Be But A Passage Out Of A Prison Into A Palace; Out Of A Sea Of Troubles Into A Haven Of Rest; Out Of A Crowd Of Enemies, To An Innumerable Company Of True, Loving, And Faithful Friends; Out Of Shame, Reproach, And Contempt, Into Exceeding Great And Eternal Glory.
