Nine Rules for Daily Living.

1. EXALT God in all I do or say.

2. Abase self, and all creature-love.

3. Pray daily for true humility.

4. Seek the good of those with whom I have to differ.

5. Show that sacrifice and self-denial for the truth’s sake are made willingly, not grudgingly.

6. Be slow to condemn those with whom I have to differ, and who do not readily see and believe as I do.

7. Make this a frequent petition, “Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth: keep thou the door of my lips.”

8. Try to live as though each day were to be my last.

9. Remember that faith is not made perfect without works also.
