All Is Vanity But To Love God

Who Has A Harder Fight Than He Who Is Striving To Overcome Himself.

Love Is Watchful. Sleeping, It Does Not Slumber. Wearied, It Is Not Tired. Pressed, It Is Not Straitened. Alarmed, It Is Not Confused, But Like A Living Flame, A Burning Torch, It Forces Its Way Upward And Passes Unharmed Through Every Obstacle.

If You Would Endeavor, Like Men Of Courage, To Stand In The Battle, Surely We Would Feel The Favorable Assistance Of God From Heaven. For He Who Give The Us Occasion To Fight, To The End We May Get The Victory, Is Ready To Succor Those That Fight Manfully, And Do Trust In His Grace.

Simplicity Is The Intention, Purity In The Affection; Simplicity Turns To God, Purity Unites With And Enjoys Him.

Let Temporal Things Serve Thy Use, But The Eternal Be The Object Of Thy Desire.
