The Music Of The Gospel Leads Us

Kindness Has Converted More Sinners Than Either Zeal, Eloquence, Or Learning; And These Three Last Have Never Converted Any.

Happiness Is A Great Power Of Holiness. Thus, Kind Words, By Their Power Of Producing Happiness, Have Also A Power Of Producing Holiness, And So Of Winning Men To God.

Now This Spirit Is Admirably Mortified By The Exercise Of Patience. It Involves Also A Continual Practice Of The Presence Of God; For We May Be Come Upon At Any Moment For An Almost Heroic Display Of Good Temper. It Is A Short Road To Unselfishness; For Nothing Is Left To Self. All That Seems To Belong Most Intimately To Self, To Be Self's Private Property, Such As Time, Home, And Rest, Are Invaded By These Continual Trials Of Patience.

Many A Friendship - Long, Loyal, And Self-sacrificing - Rested At First Upon No Thicker A Foundation Than A Kind Word.

We Strain Hardest For Things Which Are Almost But Not Quite Within Our Reach.
