If you would live gloriously – Thomas Brooks

(“The Glorious Day of the Saints Appearance”)

Professors look far too much upon the tempting world, when she smiles and holds forth her beautiful breasts! If you would live gloriously, look away from the tempting world: it is a plague and a snare! Look away from it whether it smiles or whether it frowns.

Remember you have a God to look at, a Christ to look at, and an unfading crown of glory to look at; which is better than all which is more than all other things to your souls.
