Child Of God, If You

To Turn Water Into Wine, And What Is Common Into What Is Holy, Is Indeed The Glory Of Christianity.

There Is A Grand Fearlessness In Faith. He Who In His Heart Of Hearts Reverences The Good, The True, The Holy--that Is, Reverences God--does Not Tremble At The Apparent Success Of Attacks Upon The Outworks Of Faith. They May Shake Those Who Rest On Those Outworks--they Do Not Move Him Whose Soul Reposes On The Truth Itself. He Needs No Prop Or Crutches To Support His Faith. Founded On A Rock, Faith Can Afford To Gaze Undismayed At The Approaches Of Infidelity.

The Only Revenge Which Is Essentially Christian Is That Of Retaliating By Forgiveness.

On Earth We Have Nothing To Do With Success Or With Results, But Only With Being True To God, And For God; For It Is Sincerity, And Not Success, Which Is The Sweet Savor Before God. The Defeat Of The True-hearted Is Victory.

Let A Man Begin In Earnest With "i Ought," And He Will End, By God's Grace, If He Persevere, With "i Will." Let Him Force Himself To Abound In All Small Offices Of Kindliness, Attention, Affectionateness, And All These For God's Sake. By And By He Will Feel Them Become The Habit Of His Soul.
