pathway

pathway
Give me my scallop-shell of quiet,
My staff of faith to walk upon,
 My script of joy, immortal diet,
My bottle of salvation.
 My gown of glory, hopes true gauge,
And thus I'll take my pilgrimage.

~Sir Walter Raleigh

 A hiker, walking for pleasure, likes to choose between several alluring trails.
The pilgrim desires only the road that leads home.

Real Christianity consists in

Purity,

Justice,

Contentment,

Self-command,

Philanthropy,

and a Faith which produces a sublime disregard

of human events.


~Thomas Dudley Fosbrooke,

Vicar of Walford, 1843


"... a sublime disregard of human events."


A noble thought for the day from the good Vicar!
