JUNE 5
Stir yourself up before the Lord! Pray that you may be all alive.
Letter, 10th August, 1779
1. I always use a short, private prayer when I attend the service of God …
2. I stand whenever I sing the praise of God in public. …
3. I always kneel before the Lord my Maker when I pray in public.
4. I generally in public use the Lord’s Prayer, because Christ has taught me, when I pray, to say: Our Father.
I advise every preacher connected with me, herein to tread in my steps.
