Lust is the base of most physical ills, and like a tapeworm in the system, it feeds on our best energies and vitality.
James UssherIf good people would but make goodness agreeable, and smile instead of frowning in their virtue, how many they would win to the good cause.
James UssherWe have assurance that we shall be heard in what we pray, because we pray to that God that heareth prayer, and is the rewarder of all that come unto Him; and in His name, to whom God denieth nothing; and, therefore, howsoever we are not always answered at the present, or in the same kind that we desire, yet, sooner or later, we are sure to receive even above that we are able to ask or think, if we continue to sue unto Him according to His will.
