Oh, How Great Peace And Quietness Would

For A Small Reward, A Man Will Hurry Away On A Long Journey; While For Eternal Life, Many Will Hardly Take A Single Step.

Christ Willed To Suffer And Be Despised And Do You Dare Complain Of The Same? Christ Had Adversaries And Backbiters; And Do You Wish To Have All Men Your Friends And Benefactors? When Shall Your Patience Attain Her Crown If No Adversity Befalls You? If You Are Willing To Suffer Naught That Is Against You, How Will You Be The Friend Of Christ?

When Anger Enters The Mind, Wisdom Departs.

No One Is So Good That He Is Immune From Temptation. We Will Never Be Entirely Free From It. . . . There Is No Order So Holy, No Place So Secret Where There Will Be No Temptation.

Love Flies, Runs, Leaps For Joy; It Is Free And Unrestrained. Love Gives All For All, Resting In One Who Is Highest Above All Things, From Whom Every Good Flows And Proceeds. Love Does Not Regard The Gifts, But Turns To The Giver Of All Good Gifts. Love Knows No Limits, But Ardently Transcends All Bounds. Love Feels No Burden, Takes No Account Of Toil, Attempts Things Beyond Its Strength; Love Sees Nothing As Impossible, For It Feels Able To Achieve All Things. Love Therefore Does Great Things; It Is Strange And Effective; While He Who Lacks Love Faints And Fails.
