Cease but from thine own activity, steadfastly fixing thine Eye upon
_one Point_, and with a strong purpose relying upon the promised Grace
of God in Christ, to bring thee out of thy Darkness into his marvellous
Light. For this end gather in all thy thoughts, and by faith press into
the Centre, laying hold upon the Word of God, which is infallible, and
which hath called thee. Be thou then obedient to this call, and be
silent before the Lord, sitting alone with him in thy inmost and most
hidden cell, thy mind being centrally united in itself, and attending
his Will in the patience of hope. So shall thy Light break forth as the
Morning, and after the redness thereof is passed, the Sun himself which
thou waitest for, shall arise unto thee, and under his most healing
wings thou shalt greatly rejoice; ascending and descending in his bright
and salutiferous beams. Behold this is the true Supersensual Ground of
Life.
