Excerpt from The Love of the World: A Book of Religious Meditation
I would have my spirit filled the more With grateful love to thee.
And these things that shall be added bring cares, which sometimes deceive, and Choke the word, making it unfruitful. That is our fault, not the fault Of the things. In love God gives the things, and if in love we take them at his hand, and in love use and en joy them, then they do not choke the word or make it unfruitful. It is not that we prize any Of God's gifts too highly or eu joy them too much, but that we love God and man too little ah, far too little.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is the author's reflection on his personal Christian journey. While he discusses a wide range of Christian doctrine, he consistently relates them back to his own experience of faith. His writing tackles themes of duty to God, the richness of the natural world, and the complexity of human nature, always emphasizing his belief that Christianity offers the purest and most complete solution to the challenges of life in this world. There is a running theme throughout his reflections that the 'goodness and love of the Father' is evident in every part of his Creation, and that it is through the path of Christianity that a person can most fully come to experience this. The author sees the love of God as a universal truth, guiding and inspiring every human life. He references pre-existing Christian literature to support his views, and draws upon his own life experience to illustrate their practical applications. While the book is undoubtedly a Christian text, it approaches its subject from a fresh perspective, reflecting upon Christian doctrine and practice with a rare clarity and sincerity. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
