Notwithstanding your re- solutions, it overcomes you, and this teaches you humili- ty, and will help you to correct more dangerous faults.
Place your greatest dependence upon prayer ; merely human strength and attention to precise forms will never cure you. But accustom yourself, from a consideration LETTERS. 225 of your own inciuable weaknesses, to view those of others with chanty and compassion. Prayer will soften your heart, and render you gentle, docile, accessible, and accommodating. Could... you bear that God should be as strict with you as you are with your neighbor ?
We are very severe about externals, and do not look within. While we are scrupulous about a superficial display of virtue, we do not regard the coldness of our secret hearts towards God. We fear him more than we love him. We would pay our duty to him with actions, and think we have settled our account with him, instead of giving him, without any calculation, all our love. If we looked carefully into ourselves, we should find some secret place where we hide what we think we are not obhged to sacrifice to God.
