Thomas A Kempis Quotes
I," Saith The Lord, "taught The Prophets From The Beginning, And Even Now Cease I Not To Speak Unto All; But Many Are Deaf And Hardened Against My Voice; Many Love To Listen To The World Rather Than To God, They Follow After The Desires Of The Flesh More Readily Than After The Good Pleasure Of God. The World Promiseth Things That Are Temporal And Small, And It Is Served With Great Eagerness. I Promise Things That Are Great And Eternal, And The Hearts Of Mortals Are Slow To Stir. Who Serveth And Obeyeth Me In All Things, With Such Carefulness As He Serveth The World And Its Rulers? Be Thou Ashamed, O Sidon, Saith The Sea;(3) And If Thou Reason Seekest, Hear Thou Me. For A Little Reward Men Make A Long Journey; For Eternal Life Many Will Scarce Lift A Foot Once From The Ground. Mean Reward Is Sought After; For A Single Piece Of Money Sometimes There Is Shameful Striving; For A Thing Which Is Vain And For A Trifling Promise, Men Shrink Not From Toiling Day And Night.
