…in truth Thou art…{Day 24}

We seek the place where Thou art, for there would we also be, for in truth Thou art the end of all the searchings of heart which perplex us.

Monday Ponderings {May 15}

We say of some people, that they are perfectly transparent, a good and beautiful thing. We say, everything is clear as day about them. We call them sincere, that is, clear (as honey free from wax). We all value these people, β€œopen as the day.” They are shining as a clear, clean lamp, letting forth light. Do we ask ourselves- Have we this single eye? The answer is to be found, not in anxious enquiries into our motives and feelings, but in out-shining of the light in simple, humble, pleasant doing of that duty which comes next.

Unity is strength and happiness; separateness is weakness and misery.

Monday Ponderings {September 19th}

We all know that there are few surer tests of character than the way rebuke is sustained. The meek, frank soul accepts reproof with unclouded brow and simple gratitude; the ungentle soul resents.
