Fear of God

       Of all the memorials found in Westminster Abbey, there is not one that gives a nobler thought than the life lesson from the monument to Lord Lawrence. Simply his name and date of his death, and these words: 
"He feared man so little because he feared God so much."

       Here is one great secret of victory. The prayer of the Rugby boy, John Laing Bickersteth, found locked up in his desk after his death, was: 

"Oh God, give me courage that I may fear none but thee."
