Seek God alone
Thirdly, in using all means, seek God alone. In and through every outward thing, look only to the power of his Spirit, and the merits of his Son. Beware that you do not stick in the work itself. If you do, it is all lost labor. Nothing short of God can satisfy your soul. Therefore fix your eye on him, in all, through all, and above all.
