Were In Prayer, As Indeed You Ought

If The Crowns Of All The Kingdoms Of The Empire Were Laid Down At My Feet In Exchange For My Books And My Love Of Reading I Would Spurn Them All.

God Is Our True Friend, Who Always Gives Us The Counsel And Comfort We Need. Our Danger Lies In Resisting Him; So It Is Essential That We Acquire The Habit Of Hearkening To His Voice, Or Keeping Silence Within, And Listening So As To Lose Nothing Of What He Says To Us.

In The Light Of Eternity We Shall See That What We Desired Would Have Been Fatal To Us, And That What We Would Have Avoided Was Essential To Our Well-being.

As A General Rule, Those Truths Which We Highly Relish, And Which Shed A Degree Of Practical Light Upon The Things Which We Are Required To Give Up For God, Are Leadings Of Divine Grace, Which We Should Follow Without Hesitation.

To Will Everything That God Wills, And To Will It Always, In All Circumstances And Without Reservations: That Is The Kingdom Of God Which Is Entirely Within.
