of
both
for
trifling
temporal
interests,
and
we
have
none
for
the
"
one
thing
needful'^
As
for
those
who
find
a
difficulty
in
believing
that
it
is
easy
to
find
God
in
this
way,
let
them
not
believe
all
that
they
are
told,
but
rather
let
them
make
trial
of
it,
that
they
may
judge
for
themselves;
and
they
will
find
that
I
say
very
little
in
comparison
with
that
which
is.
Dear
reader,
study
this
little
work
with
a
simple
and
sincere
heart,
with
lowliness
of
mind,
without
wishing
to
criticise
it,
and
you
will
find
it
of
good
to
you.
Receive
it
with
the
same
spirit
as
that
in
which
it
is
given,
which
is
no
other
than
the
long-ing
that
you
may
be
led
to
give
yourself
unre-servedly
to
God.
My
desire
is
that
it
may
be
the
means
of
leading
the
simple
ones
and
the
children
to
their
Father,
who
loves
their
humble
confidence,
and
to
whom
distrust
is
so
displeasing.
Seek
nothing
but
the
love
of
God;
have
a
sincere
desire
for
your
salvation,
and
you
will
assuredly
find
it,
following
this
little
unmethodical
method.
I
do
not
pretend
to
elevate
my
sentiments
above
those
of
others,
but
I
relate
simply
what
has
been
