Time Spent In Prayer Is

Peace Does Not Dwell In Outward Things But Within The Soul; We May Preserve It In The Midst Of The Bitterest Pain, If Our Will Remains Firm And Submissive. Peace In This Life Springs From Acquiescence To, Not An Exemption From, Suffering.

Commit Yourself Then To God! He Will Be Your Guide. He Himself Will Travel With You, As We Are Told He Did With The Israelites, To Bring Them Step By Step Across The Desert To The Promised Land. Ah! What Will Be Your Blessedness, If You Will But Surrender Yourself Into The Hands Of God, Permitting Him To Do Whatever He Will, Not According To Your Desires, But According To His Own Good Pleasure?

So Long As We Are Full Of Self We Are Shocked At The Faults Of Others. Let Us Think Often Of Our Own Sin, And We Shall Be Lenient To The Sins Of Others.

I Would Have No Desire Other Than To Accomplish Thy Will. Teach Me To Pray; Pray Thyself In Me.

The Youth Who, Like A Woman, Loves To Adorn His Person, Has Renounced All Claim To Wisdom And To Glory; Glory Is Due To Those Only Who Dare To Associate With Pain, And Have Trampled Pleasure Under Their Feet.
