  1  Unic,   1    |         and it is always a good thing if we can be of any help
  2  Unic,   2    |        you ever hears of such a thing happening in this house,
  3  Unic,   3    |       God's little ones. A fine thing it would be for soldiers
  4  Unic,   3    |      that any evil or imperfect thing they do will be overlooked.
  5  Unic,   4    |        it is the most important thing of all) we shall not fail
  6  Unic,   4    |     sort of passion, for such a thing would completely spoil its
  7  Unic,   4    |       where to turn, the safest thing will be for the sister to
  8  Unic, App    |       separately.~The important thing is that these two kinds
  9  Unic, App    |     sort of passion, for such a thing would completely spoil this
 10  Unic, App    |        And as it is a difficult thing to get to know which confessors
 11  Unic, App    |     feel as if this is the only thing you have to confess and
 12  Unic,   6    |        is insubstantial, like a thing of straw, as light as air
 13  Unic,   7    |         love. It is a very good thing for us to take compassion
 14  Unic,   8    |    shown me. It was a wonderful thing to give me the vocation
 15  Unic,   9    |        ourselves from the chief thing of all -- namely, our kinsfolk.
 16  Unic,   9    |        but it is the most usual thing to happen in the world,
 17  Unic,   9    |         is, as I have said, the thing which sticks to us most
 18  Unic,  10    |         selves and it is a hard thing to withdraw from ourselves
 19  Unic,  10    |                       The first thing, then, that we have to do,
 20  Unic,  10    |      that we do neither the one thing nor the other. Sometimes
 21  Unic,  11    | imperfection: if you can bear a thing, say nothing about it. When
 22  Unic,  11    |        person of this kind, the thing generally comes to such
 23  Unic,  12    |   office to do, or do some such thing, as best you can, on our
 24  Unic,  13    |          and that is a very bad thing for communities.~
 25  Unic,  13    |     than be the cause of such a thing. For only the body would
 26  Unic,  14    |        sees that it is the best thing for her; this course may
 27  Unic,  15    |         to test this particular thing myself, for I never heard
 28  Unic,  15    |        be lost by it. The chief thing we gain is being able, in
 29  Unic,  15    |        are not to blame for the thing that we are accused of,
 30  Unic,  15    |         be that I should wish a thing so evil as myself to be
 31  Unic,  15    |      that would be a very great thing. Such an experience uplifts
 32  Unic,  16    |      Lord, for it is a dreadful thing that a soul whom Thou hast
 33  Unic,  16    |     should approach any earthly thing and become attached to it.~
 34  Unic,  16    |   precedence: apparently such a thing is quite intolerable. We
 35  Unic,  16    |         not be; but what a good thing it is for us to reflect
 36  Unic,  17    |       concentrate upon the same thing, but are always restless,
 37  Unic,  17    |       them. It is indeed a good thing that the choice is not ours;
 38  Unic,  18    |        they are weak, the first thing the Lord does is to give
 39  Unic,  19    |      help me! What a marvellous thing it is that, when this fire
 40  Unic,  19    |      freedom. Is it not a funny thing that a poor little nun of
 41  Unic,  19    |    quenched by the least little thing. But this fire will most
 42  Unic,  19    |         beautiful and wonderful thing it is that fire should cool
 43  Unic,  19    |      shall die. It is a strange thing that if we have no water
 44  Unic,  19    |      foolish to check so good a thing as this desire, but it is
 45  Unic,  20    |      that is the most important thing -- or rather, every part
 46  Unic,  20    |        sooner does it learn one thing than it has to forget another
 47  Unic,  20    |         so as not to forget one thing while I am saying another.
 48  Unic,  21    |         I have read what a good thing it is to begin in this way,
 49  Unic,  21    |    enough! It is always a great thing to base your prayer on prayers
 50  Unic,  21    |        them realize what a good thing it is. If they say that
 51  Unic,  22    |    honour left. It is a curious thing, and when you go out to
 52  Unic,  22(84)|                        Lit.: "a thing".~
 53  Unic,  23    |     leave not even the smallest thing in his possession, merely
 54  Unic,  23    |      may owe Him, it is a small thing for Him to forgive us. And,
 55  Unic,  23    |         by faith. It is a great thing to have experienced what
 56  Unic,  24    |       the Paternoster well, one thing is needful: you must not
 57  Unic,  25    |         think of it as one more thing with an outlandish name96
 58  Unic,  26    |         you think it is a small thing to have such a Friend as
 59  Unic,  26    |      look at the most beautiful thing imaginable? Your Spouse
 60  Unic,  26    |     Himself. Is it such a great thing that you should turn your
 61  Unic,  27    |          God forbid that such a thing should ever happen in this
 62  Unic,  28    |        again, but it is a great thing that they should ever have
 63  Unic,  28    |       there it would be a great thing if He were to remain for
 64  Unic,  29    |          friends, it is a great thing to realize the truth of
 65  Unic,  29    |                       The great thing I should like to teach you
 66  Unic,  30    |        were for some particular thing, as our good Jesus tells
 67  Unic,  30    |          Let us understand this thing that we are asking for,
 68  Unic,  31    |     occupy itself with only one thing, and the memory has no desire
 69  Unic,  31    |        see that this is the one thing needful and that anything
 70  Unic,  31    |     other, both desire the same thing; but if the husband is unhappy
 71  Unic,  31    |       and treat it as the silly thing it is, and remain in her
 72  Unic,  32    |         ourselves to ask, for a thing so precious that it includes
 73  Unic,  32    |         possible. It is a great thing that Thou dost offer.~
 74  Unic,  32    |  realize that it is the hardest thing we can do if we carry it
 75  Unic,  33    |      have said, how difficult a thing He is offering on our behalf,
 76  Unic,  34    |      good for us, for it is one thing to see Him glorified and
 77  Unic,  34    |       of a picture an excellent thing, and take great pleasure
 78  Unic,  35    |      Thou couldst not deny us a thing which is so good for us)
 79  Unic,  36    |                             The thing is enough to make one laugh --
 80  Unic,  36    |        person for some trifling thing, which was neither a slight
 81  Unic,  37    |        openly, never saying one thing and meaning another; and
 82  Unic,  37    |       Teacher! What a wonderful thing it is, daughters, to have
 83  Unic,  38    |       way, is the least harmful thing they can do; it may even
 84  Unic,  38    |        others. It will be a bad thing for others, too, for, once
 85  Unic,  38    |         sisters? To me the best thing seems to be what our Master
 86  Unic,  38    |         I have noticed the same thing in many people better than
 87  Unic,  38    |                        The same thing happens with regard to humility.135
 88  Unic,  39    |    properly prepared or no. The thing gets to such a pass that
 89  Unic,  39    |        more: it will be a great thing if you can recognize it
 90  Unic,  39    |                  What a strange thing it is! You might suppose
 91  Unic,  39    |         is a new and an unusual thing. For human nature is such
 92  Unic,  40    |          for it will be a great thing at the hour of death, when
 93  Unic,  41    |          for it is a delightful thing to talk about this love
 94  Unic,  41    |     This fear of God is another thing with which those who possess
 95  Unic,  41    |                Oh, what a great thing it is not to have offended
 96  Unic,  41    |       frequently? But it is one thing to commit a sin knowingly
 97  Unic,  41    | commission are one and the same thing, and we hardly realize what
 98  Unic,  41    |       to realize what a serious thing it is to offend Him. Do
 99  Unic,  42    |         was the least important thing, with so many offenses being
100  Unic,  42    |      evil "for ever." What good thing shall we find in this life,
101  Unic,  42    |       each day. And the hardest thing to bear, Lord, is that I
