Secondly, Put forth renewed Acts of Faith on Christ every day, and remember it is as much your duty to believe in Christ to day, as if you had never believed before. O live by faith every day, and this will bring peace to you.
Thirdly, Maintain a constant communion with God daily: this communion with God is mans chief good; the happiness of a Child is in communion with his Father, and the happiness of a wife is in communion with her Husband, and this is the happiness of a Believers soul, communion ⟨image 102⟩with God the Father, through Christ our Head and Husband. The seed of peace, it's true, it is sown in the soul in Union, but then it takes root downward, and brings forth fruit upward. Spiritual peace will never be obtained if communion with God be not maintained: that gives comfort in the midst of all sorrows, and satisfies all doubts, and recompenses all wants. Lo this is the fruit of communion with God.
