Man Is Emphatically Self-made.

God Has Created Me To Do Him Some Definite Service; He Has Committed Some Work To Me Which He Has Not Committed To Another. I Have My Mission; I Never May Know It In This Life, But I Shall Be Told It In The Next. I Have A Part In A Great Work; I Am A Link In A Chain, A Bond Of Connection Between Persons. He Has Not Created Me For Naught. I Shall Do Good, I Shall Do His Work; I Shall Be An Angel Of Peace, A Preacher Of Truth In My Own Place, While Not Intending It, If I Do But Keep His Commandments And Serve Him In My Calling.

All That Is Good, All That Is True, All That Is Beautiful, All That Is Beneficent, Be It Great Or Small, Be It Perfect Or Fragmentary, Natural As Well As Supernatural, Moral As Well As Material, Comes From God.

Two And Two Only Supreme And Luminously Self-evident Beings, Myself And My Creator.

This Is What The Church Is Said To Want, Not Party Men, But Sensible, Temperate, Sober, Well-judging Persons, To Guide It Through The Channel Of No-meaning, Between The Scylla And Charybdis Of Aye And No.

By A Garden Is Meant Mystically A Place Of Spiritual Repose, Stillness, Peace, Refreshment, Delight.
