I Must Remain A Child And Pupil

From You, My Dear Erasmus, Let Me Obtain This Request, That Just As I Bear With Your Ignorance In These Matters, So You In Turn Will Bear With My Lack Of Eloquence.

This Letter [to The Romans] Is Truly The Most Important Piece In The New Testament. It Is Purest Gospel. It Is Well Worth A Christian's While Not Only To Memorize It Word For Word But Also To Occupy Himself With It Daily, As Though It Were The Daily Bread Of The Soul. It Is Impossible To Read Or To Meditate On This Letter Too Much Or Too Well. The More One Deals With It, The More Precious It Becomes, And The Better It Tastes.

Let Whatsoever Will Or Can Befall Me, I Will Surely Cleave By My Sweet Savior Christ Jesus, For In Him Am I Baptized; I Can Neither Do Nor Know Anything But Only What He Has Taught Me.

The Heart Overflows With Gladness, And Leaps And Dances For The Joy It Has Found In God. In This Experience The Holy Spirit Is Active, And Has Taught Us In The Flash Of A Moment The Deep Secret Of Joy. You Will Have As Much Joy And Laughter In Life As You Have Faith In God.

Stubbornness Should Have Been My Middle Name.
