though there may be not

Let the whiteness be in your
heart. Put aside all thoughts of
guile. Forget all the big or lit

Pertaining against some other
person. Cast out all envy, all
coyetousness, all unkindness. En-
deavor to harbor in your heart
only such thoughts and feelings
as the Nazarene knew when he
dwelt by Galilee. Cultivate hui

tian charity. Look beyond and

Get out of yourself. Get into
the hearts Of others.
