A little lifting of the heart suffices; a little remembrance of God, one act of inward worship are prayers which, however short, are nevertheless acceptable to God.

Let us think often that our only business in this life is to please God. Perhaps all besides is but folly and vanity.

We ought not to be weary of doing little things for the love of God, who regards not the greatness of the work, but the love with which it is performed.

I cannot imagine how religious persons can live satisfied without the practice of the presence of GOD. For my part I keep myself retired with Him in the depth of centre of my soul as much as I can; and while I am so with Him I fear nothing; but the least turning from Him is insupportable.

There is no sweeter manner of living in the world than continuous communion with God.

What can God have that gives him greater satisfaction than that a thousand times a day all his creatures should thus pause to withdraw and worship him in the heart.
