I will not say it is not Christian to make beads of others faults, and tell them over every day; I say it is infernal. If you want to know how the Devil feels, you do know, if you are such an one.

Many of our troubles are God dragging us, and they would end if we would stand upon our feet and go whither He would have us go.

Love is the wine of existence.
