• “How very narrow is the gate that leads to a life in God! (Mt 7:14) How little one must be to pass through it, it being nothing else but death to self! But when we have passed through it, what enlargement do we find! David said, ‘He brought me forth also in a large place’ (Ps. 18:19). And it was through humiliation and abasement that he was brought there.” – from Madame Guyon’s autobiography Ch. 22

Joy and Strength 03/13

God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John iii. 16.

Let your love be wide as His?
With the whole world round His knees;
Gather into your warm heart
All His creatures, — not a part;
So your love shall be like His.
Katharine Tynan Hinkson.

GOD hath made all that is made, and God loveth all that He hath made; and he that loveth all his fellow-Christians, for God’s sake, he loveth all that is.
Mother Juliana.

Your God is love; love Him and in Him all men, as His children in Christ. Your Lord is a fire; do not let your heart be cold, but burn f with faith and love. Your Lord is light; do not walk in darkness. Your Lord is a God of mercy and bountifulness; be also a source of mercy and bountifulness to your neighbors.
Father John.

“Love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and thy neighbor as thyself;” and then go on thy way. The way in which God shall lead thee may he over rocks and deserts, over mountains and oceans, amid things perilous to the sight and the touch; but still go on thy way rejoicing.
Thomas C. Upham.
