Excerpt from The Path of Peace: Or a Practical Guide to Duty and Happiness
Can that person be a christian, who is so unamiable in character, that his companionship is undesirable? Is devotional feeling acceptable to God, when unaccompanied by the graces of a generous and a lovely spirit? And yet how many christians are there, who are any thing but agreeable companions or desirable friends!
"Mother," said a little boy, "I do not wish to go to Heaven."
"And why not my son?"
"Why Grandfather will be there, will he not?"
"Yes, my son, I hope he will."
"Well, as soon as he sees us, he will come scolding along, and say, 'Whew, whew, whew, what are these boys here for.' I am sure I do not wish to go to Heaven, if Grandfather is to be there."
