“God. When you pore over the contents of your heart to search whether or not the love of God is there, it would be wiser to think of the infinite friendliness of God.”

“7. The effects of natural sickness or disease are not (in and of themselves) sins. 8. The smallest sins (formally) and least likely to condemn us are those which we are most unwilling to commit and least love or enjoy. 9. No sin that we hate more than we love shall condemn us, if we would rather leave and be delivered from it than keep it. This is true repentance.”

“Just as we need to direct the thoughts of careless sinners inwardly and turn them from the world and sin and to themselves, in a different way we need to direct the thoughts of self-perplexing, melancholy persons outwardly. This is so because it is the nature of their disorder to be always accusing themselves. Remember that it is a far higher, nobler, and sweeter work to think of God, Christ, and heaven, than of such worms as we ourselves are.”
