LXXI. MED. That we ought to do all our Actions well.
GOd will be honoured by me by this Action. He expects I should serv him this Action. He has annex'd his Grace to this Action. He will know whether I love him by this Action.
His Glory depends on this Action. His Wisdom has dispos'd of this Action. His Majesty heightens this Action. His Sanctity consecrates this Action. His Will commands this Action. His Providence ordains this Action. His Greatness ennobles this Action. His Love requires this Action.
My Peace is included in this Action. My Merit proceeds from this Action. My Perfection is annexed to this Action. God will be offended if I fail in this Action. I shall not have the Grace that follows this Action. Possibly my Salvation depends on this Action. I will therefore do nothing but study To do this Action well.
