This earth will be looked back on like a lowly home, and this life of ours be remembered like a short apprenticeship to duty.
William MountfordFaith is the inspiration of nobleness, it is the strength of integrity; it is the life of love, and is everlasting growth for it; it is courage of soul, and bridges over for our crossing the gulf between worldliness and heavenly-mindedness; and it is the sense of the unseen, without which we could not feel God nor hope for heaven.
William MountfordLet God do with me what He will, anything He will; and, whatever it be, it will be either heaven itself, or some beginning of it.
William MountfordThe day of our decease will be that of our coming of age; and with our last breath we shall become free of the universe. And in some region of infinity, and from among its splendors, this earth will be looked back on like a lowly home, and this life of ours be remembered like a short apprenticeship to duty.
