$14.99 Now you can enjoy the wisdom and thoughts of Thomas A Kempis each day of the Year. Compiled from the many works of Kempis. 112 pages. 1. It is indeed good to me to attach myself to God! O short and sweet word! by which one gains God, and shuts out the world. What farther ought one to say, or what farther can one desire? Is it not enough. 2. You must not desire to be running here and there; but you must be solitary; the solitary mingle in no fellowship with externals. 3. Let your conversation be only to the One, and when he goes away, sit solitary and bear all patiently. 4. Temptation is a fire, which proves the pure gold, and burns up the dross. See you, O man, what you are! the heavenly refiner melts, and the children of Levi purify. 5. All is not gold which glistens, nor is all chaff or counterfeit that comes under the flail, or is in the fire. God looks upon the heart and the intention. 6. The whole of this present life, is but one short night. My days are short and evil, and are soon to end. They are to be, as though they had not been.
