Thou Shalt Ever Joy At Eventide If

The Enemy Is More Easily Overcome If He Be Not Suffered To Enter The Door Of Our Hearts, But Be Resisted Without The Gate At His First Knock.

If Thou Be Not Busy For Thyself Now, Who Shall Be Busy For Thee In Time To Come?

Why Seekest Thou Rest, Since Thou Art Born To Labor? [lat., Cur Quaeris Quietem, Quam Natus Sis Ad Laborem?]

Jesus Has Many Lovers Of His Kingdom Of Heaven, But He Has Few Bearers Of His Cross. Many Desire His Consolation, But Few Desire His Tribulation. He Finds Many Comrades In Eating And Drinking, But He Finds Few Hands Who Will Be With Him In His Abstinence And Fastingbut Those Who Love Jesus Purely For Himself, And Not For Their Own Profit Or Convenience, Bless Him As Heartily In Temptation And Tribulation And In All Other Adversities As They Do In Time Of Consolation. And If He Never Sent Them Consolation, They Would Still Bless And Praise Him.

Such As Every Man Is Inwardly So He Judgeth Outwardly.
