My Cross Is Become My Crown

Moonlight on Lake Roundhay Park Leeds by John Atkinson Grimshaw

Worldly-mindedness.  So much imperfection of temper.  So many things unworthy of the Christian character

Be ten times more obliging, more devoted, more sweetly kind, in all other matters; you should return good for evil; you should exhibit the most undisturbed meekness; you should try to conquer violence by patience.

You must be willing to die of a broken heart, and by the wrongs of persecution.

John Angell James.  The Anxious Inquirer.
