Resolves…
To watch over a growing habit of uncharitable judgment
Speak, act, work quietly, as though you were praying, as indeed you ought to be.
We cannot hold on to the blessings of Christ if our hands are wrapped around something, anything, else.
We will not enter into the joy of our Father if we continue to seek fulfilment in the things of this world.
PRAY, till prayer makes you forget your own wish, and leave it or merge it in God’s will.
IT IS abundantly clear that answered prayer encourages faith and personal relations in a way which broad principles only cannot effect.
I cannot help [praying for special things], any more than a child in the dark can help calling for its mother.
More things are wrought by prayer than this world dreams of.
WE DO not present our supplications before Thee for our righteousness, but for Thy great mercies.
IF YOU want your neighbour to know what the Christ spirit will do for him, let him see what it has done for you.
…and so we learn to listen for and to love ‘the still small voice’ in which He speaks to our hearts.
