Do not let the loud utterances of your own wills anticipate, nor drown, the still, small voice in which God speaks. Bridle impatience till He does. If you cannot hear His whisper, wait till you do. Take care of running before you are sent. Keep your wills in equipoise till God's hand gives the impulse and direction.

To pursue joy is to lose it. The only way to get it is to follow steadily the path of duty.

Embrace in one act the two truths-thine own sin, and God's infinite mercy in Jesus Christ.
