If God Causes You To

Sin Is Unwillingness To Trust That What God Wants For Me Is Only My Deepest Happiness.

Let Us Work As If Success Depended Upon Ourselves Alone, But With Heartfelt Conviction That We Are Doing Nothing, And God Everything.

Concerning The Harsh Treatment Of The Body For Our Lord's Sake, I Would Say, Avoid Anything That Would Cause The Shedding Even Of A Drop Of Blood.

Imagine That Leader Of All The Enemy, In That Great Plain Of Babylon, Sitting On A Sort Of Throne Of Smoking Flame, A Horrible And Terrifying Sight. Watch Him Calling Together Countless Devils, To Despatch Them Into Different Cities Till The Whole World Is Covered, Forgetting No Province Or Locality, No Class Or Single Individual.

Pardon Me, O Perfections Of My God, For Having Preferred Imperfect And Evil Inclinations To Thee! Pardon Me, O Justice Of My God, For Having Outraged Thee By My Sins. Pardon Me, O Holiness Of My God, For Having So Long Stained Thy Sight's Purity By My Sins. Pardon Me, O Mercy Of My God, For Having Despised So Long Thy Mercy's Voice. In Deep Sorrow And Contrition, I Cast Myself At Thy Feet: Have Mercy On Me.
