Strength & Perseverance
He cannot, at one and the same time, follow his own will, and follow the will of God: He must choose the one or the other.
Practise it universally, on every one of the thousand occasions which will occur in all circumstances of life! Practise it daily, without intermission.
To deny ourselves, is, to deny our own will, where it does not fall in with the will of God; and that however pleasing it may be.
