It is possible for us to live in the very sense of the Lord's presence, under even the most difficult circumstances. If you and I are going to enjoy the peace of paradise during this life we must become accustomed to a familiar, humble, and very affectionate conversation with the Lord Jesus.

That we should feed and nourish our souls with high notions of GOD; which would yield us great joy in being devoted to Him.

The greater perfection a soul aspires after, the more dependent it is upon Divine Grace.

If we are truly devoted to doing God's will, pain and pleasure won't make any difference to us.

That there needed neither art nor science for going to GOD, but only a heart resolutely determined to apply itself to nothing but Him, or for His sake, and to love Him only.

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.

And it is not necessary to have great things to do. I turn my little omelette in the pan for the love of God.
