Can we be unsafe where God has placed us, and where He watches over us as a parent a child that he loves?

If we were faultless we should not be so much annoyed by the defects of those with whom we associate.

God, who is liberal in all his other gifts, shows us, by the wise economy of His providence, how circumspect we ought to be in the management of our time, for He never gives us two moments together.

All wars are civil ones; for it is still man spilling his own blood, tearing out his own bowels.

Can we be unsafe where God has placed us, and where He watches over us as a parent a child that he loves?

Resign every forbidden joy; restrain every wish that is not referred to God's will; banish all eager desires, all anxiety; desire only the will of God; seek him alone and supremely, and you will find peace.

I no longer desire anything but to be Thine.
