There is No Place Like Home

More Consecration
Consecrating yourselves means giving yourselves to the service of the Lord; it means surrendering yourselves, your very bodies and souls, means rising above the low and ordinary things of this life and coming into a very holy and intimate relation with the God whom we would serve.
1915 The Lutheran Pioneer

In striving after holiness, do not forget that trifles, the little things, count for very much.
1914 The Northwestern Lutheran
On Going to Church
Resolve that you will foster no thought, fix your eyes on no object, utter no word that will tend to divert your mind from the holy purpose for which you have come into this place.
