天堂的盼望

¶不久，神就要给你灵魂一切的搅扰、挂虑和警醒守望，划上一个蒙福的终点。

¶那日子将到，你的心要成为你所愿它成为的样子；你要从这一切挂虑、惧怕和忧伤中被释放，再也不呼喊说：“我这刚硬、骄傲、虚浮、属地的心哪！”

¶那日子将到，一切黑暗都要从你的悟性中被驱逐；你要在神里面，就是在那真理的水晶海中，清楚看见一切真理。

¶那日子将到，一切虚妄都要从你的思想中被完全洁净出去；你的思想要永永远远、令人心醉、满有喜乐地被安置并运用于神至高的美善和无限的荣美之上。

¶God will shortly put a blessed end to all of your soul troubles, cares, and watchings.

¶The time is coming, when your heart shall be as you would have it, when you shall be discharged of all these cares, fears, and sorrows, and never more cry out: "O my hard, my proud, my vain, my earthly heart!"

¶The time is coming, when all darkness shall be banished from your understanding, and you shall clearly discover all truths in God, that crystal ocean of truth.

¶The time is coming, when all vanity shall be purged perfectly out of your thoughts-and they be everlastingly, ravishingly, and delightfully entertained and exercised upon that supreme goodness, and infinite excellency of God!
