For this is the will of God, even your sanctification. 
                                            --- I Thess. iv.3

        Between us and Thyself remove
          Whatever hindrances may be,
        That so our inmost heart may prove
          A holy temple, meet for Thee.
                                      Latin Mss. of 15th Century


BEAR, in the presence of God, to know thyself.  Then seek to know for what God sent thee into the world;  how thou hast fulfilled it,; art thou yet what God willed thee to be; what yet lacketh unto thee; what is God's will  for thee now; what thing thou mayest now do, by His grace, to obtain His favor and approve thyself unto Him.  Say to Him, "Teach me to do Thy will, for Thou art my God", and He will say unto thy soul, "Fear not; I am thy salvation."  He will speak peace unto thy soul; He will set thee in the way; He will bear thee above things of sense, and praise of man, and things which perish in thy grasp, and give thee, if but afar off, some glimpse of His own, unfading, unsetting, unperishing brightness and bliss and love.
