The Lord Jesus, Everything. In Himself Worse

The Joy Which Answers To Prayer Give, Cannot Be Described; And The Impetus Which They Afford To The Spiritual Life Is Exceedingly Great.

The Greater The Trial, The Sweeter The Victory.

There Were Few People, Perhaps, More Passionately Fond Of Travelling, And Seeing Fresh Places, And New Scenes, Than Myself; But Now, Since, By The Grace Of God, I Have Seen Beauty In The Lord Jesus, I Have Lost My Taste For These Things.

On The Ground Of Our Own Goodness We Cannot Expect To Have Our Prayers Answered. But Jesus Is Worthy, And For His Sake We May Have Our Prayers Answered. There Is Nothing Too Choice, Too Costly, Or Too Great For God To Give Him. He Is Worthy. He Is The Spotless, Holy Child, Who Under All Circumstances Acted According To The Mind Of God. And If We Trust In Him, If We Hide In Him, If We Put Him Forward And Ourselves In The Background, Depend On Him And Plead His Name, We May Expect To Have Our Prayers Answered.

As A Warning To Parents, I Mention That My Father Preferred Me To My Brother, Which Was Very Injurious To Both Of Us. To Me, As Tending To Produce In My Mind A Feeling Of Self-elevation; And To My Brother, By Creating In Him A Dislike Both Towards My Father And Me.
