Temples of the Holy Ghost: Purity and Constant Prayer
By Bramwell
We are the temples of the Holy Ghost. I see the necessity of the greatest purity in the outward man. To keep the whole requires constant prayer, watching, looking always to Christ. I mean that the soul never be diverted from him for one moment; but that I view him in all my work, take hold of him as the instrument by which I do all my work, and feel that nothing is done without him. To seek men, world, self, praise, is so shocking to my view at present, that I wonder we are not all struck dead when the least of this comes upon us. I know immediately when I grieve the Lord, the Spirit speaks within; and to do wrong in the great light, is the great offense.— Bramwell.
