God incarnate is the end of fear; and the heart that realizes that, realizes that he is in the midst, that takes heed to the assurance of his loving presence, will be quiet in the midst of alarm.

Habits of prayer need careful cultivation.

The passing of the years awakens in our hearts the cry for permanence.
