Excerpt from Vision and Restraint The malady of the age is immoderation. The modern man is a study in extravagance and excess. In his determination to achieve his ambitions and gratify his desires, he goes, until he is ready to drop. His permanent residence, therefore, is the ragged edge. He ever dwells not far from the bankruptcies which inevitably overtake all prodigals. He has failed to master the first secret of right living, namely, self-restraint. Nor will he ever master it, until he changes the habitation of his spirit from the material world to the spiritual. Becoming an inhabitant of the spiritual world, instead of the material, spiritual values will be sought in place of material, with the result that the rhythm of his life will more and more harmonize with the rhythm of the life of the Eternal.
