Think Well On It - Brother Hermenegild Tosf - Bog

I. Make choice of a proper time and place for recollection; and shut the door of thy heart as much as possible against the world with all its distracting cares and affections. II. Place thyself in the presence of thy God, representing his incomprehensible Majesty to thyself by a lively faith, as fining heaven and earth, or as residing with all his attributes in the very centre of thy soul. Prostrate thyself in spirit before him, to adore this sovereign Lord; ll1uke an entire offering of thyself to him humbly begging his pardon for all thy past treasons against him. III. Implore, with fervour and humility, his light and grace, that the great truths of the gospel may make a deep impression on thy soul, that thou mayest effectually learn to fear and love all! IV. Read the chapter for the day leisurely, and with serious attention, giving thy soul time to digest what thou art reading; and pause more particularly on those points which allect thee most.
