I Am A Great Sinner

We Can Easily Manage If We Will Only Take, Each Day, The Burden Appointed To It. But The Load Will Be Too Heavy For Us If We Carry Yesterday's Burden Over Again Today, And Then Add The Burden Of The Morrow Before We Are Required To Bear It.

I Make It A Rule Of Christian Duty Never To Go To A Place Where There Is Not Room For My Master As Well As Myself.

Whoever Is Truly Humbled — Will Not Be Easily Angry, Nor Harsh Or Critical Of Others. He Will Be Compassionate And Tender To The Infirmities Of His Fellow-sinners, Knowing That If There Is A Difference — It Is Grace Alone Which Has Made It! He Knows That He Has The Seeds Of Every Evil In His Own Heart. And Under All Trials And Afflictions — He Will Look To The Hand Of The Lord, And Lay His Mouth In The Dust, Acknowledging That He Suffers Much Less Than His Iniquities Have Deserved.

If We Seem To Get No Good By Attempting To Draw Near To Him, We May Be Sure We Will Get None By Keeping Away From Him.

I Know Not A Better Rule Of Reading The Scripture, Than To Read It Through From Beginning To End And When We Have Finished It Once, To Begin It Again. We Shall Meet With Many Passages Which We Can Make Little Improvement Of, But Not So Many In The Second Reading As In The First, And Fewer In The Third Than In The Second: Provided We Pray To Him Who Has The Keys To Open Our Understandings, And To Anoint Our Eyes With His Spiritual Ointment.
