The Works of the Rev. John Wesley, Vol. 06 (of 32)

A religious work written in the late 18th century. This volume is part of a larger collection presenting Wesley's writings, which address various theological topics, including devotion, prayer, and the relationship between God and humanity. It aims to inspire readers toward a life of faith and a deeper understanding of Christian doctrine. At the start of this volume, the focus is on the importance of resignation to God's will, emphasizing that true virtue stems from conforming to divine intentions. Wesley argues that every action should reflect a desire to align with God's plans, promoting prayer as a means of developing this conformity. He asserts that gratitude and a spirit of devotion are essential to a fulfilling Christian life, framing these ideas within the context of human limitations and the need for divine guidance rather than relying solely on human reasoning or principles. Wesley's discussions serve as both a reflection and guide on the path to spiritual growth and understanding.
