What else does anxiety about the future bring you but sorrow upon sorrow?
Restrain an inordinate desire for knowledge, in which is found much anxiety and deception. Learned men always wish to appear so, and desire recognition of their wisdom. But there are many matters, knowledge of which brings little or no advantage to the soul.
Oh, how great peace and quietness would he possess who should cut off all vain anxiety and place all his confidence in God.
