Fanatical Mind

Cherish an Impartial, Optimistic Outlook—There is no reason
for us to fix our eyes upon error, to grieve and complain, and lose
precious time and opportunities in lamenting the faults of others....
[47]
Would it not be more pleasing to God to take an impartial outlook
and see how many souls are serving God and resisting temptation and
glorifying and honoring Him with their talents of means and intellect?
Would it not be better to consider the wonderful, miracle-working
power of God in the transformation of poor, degraded sinners, who
have been full of moral pollution, who become so transformed that
they are Christlike in character?—
