** May 21, i8io. — Alone in my own room as usual.
I cannot but rejoice that thy heart is as thee describes it to be, so much in thy present important scene of action : it can hardly be too much so if thy first hope and consolation are fixed on things above. This we must all seek in the first place — 'Seek ye first the kingdom of heaven, and all other things shall be added to you.' And, in proportion as we feel the extreme imperfection of all earthly objects, surely we shall make this our grand ...aim, and remember that for the attainment of this end we are to give all diligence.
Then, that our hearts may be more effectually weaned from the world, we must prepare ourselves to meet with suffering as we pass through this wilderness — 'Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves Hkewise with the same mind, for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin, that he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh, and to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.' In this light we ought to view all the trials and vexations of the present life, let them come under what forms they may; and I wish, dearest Hannah, thee mayst be enabled to do so.
