If you could once make up your mind never to undertake more work … than you can carry on calmly quietly without hurry or flurry … and if the instant you feel yourself growing nervous and … out of breath you would stop and take a breath you would find this simple common-sense rule doing for you what no prayers or tears could ever accomplish.

Bring into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ. Take what I cannot give–my heart, body, thoughts, time, abilities, money, health, strength, nights, days, youth, age, and spend them in Thy service, O my crucified Master, Redeemer, God. Oh, let these not be mere words! Whom have I in heaven but Thee? And there is none upon earth that I desire in comparison of Thee. My heart is athirst for God, for the living God. When shall I come and appear before God?
