14. Depart from evil. Go away from it. Set a
distance between yourself and temptation. And do good. Be practical,
active, energetic, persevering in good. He who does good is sure to avoid evil.
Seek peace. Not merely prefer it, but with zeal and care endeavor to
promote it. Peace with God, with your own heart, with your fellow-men, search
after this as the merchant after a precious pearl. And pursue it. Hunt
after it, chase it with eager desire. The peace which you thus promote will be
returned into your own heart, and be a perennial spring of comfort to you.
