For these things distract and greatly darken the heart.

I would willingly utter my words, and reveal my secrets unto thee, if thou didst diligently observe my coming, and open the door of thy heart unto me.

Be careful and watch in prayer, and humble thyself in all things.


CHAPTER XX.

Wherein firm peace of heart and true profiting consisteth.

Christ.SON, I have said, Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you.

All desire peace, but all care not for those things that appertain unto peace.

My peace is with the humble and meek of heart; thy peace doth consist in much patience.

If thou wilt hear me, and follow my voice, thou mayest enjoy much peace.
