He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under
the shadow of the Almighty.

PSALMS 91:1

The upright shall dwell in Thy presence.

PSALMS 111:13

My soul and all its powers

Thine, wholly Thine shall be;

All, all my happy hours

I consecrate to Thee:

Me to Thine image now restore,

And I shall praise Thee evermore.

CHARLES WESLEY

IF the wish is wakened in our soul to be ever in His presence, let us go
to Him this moment, and ask Him what to do, and how to feel, believing
that He is more ready to hear than we to pray. He will give us
realization of His love, and convictions of duty. Let us follow those
convictions implicitly; let us ask Him every day to teach us more, and
help us more; and we shall soon say, with Paul, "Thanks be unto God, for
His unspeakable gift!"

WILLIAM R. HUNTINGTON

The all-important thing is not to live apart from God, but as far as
possible to be consciously with Him. It must needs be that those who
look much into His face will become like Him.

CHARLES H. BRENT
