A challenging essay to the professing Christian which asks,  "Have you given thanks to God for the  blessings He has bestowed on you?"  Instructive as well to those who do not know God as their Father, that the glory to be had from one's own achievemennts and possessions, is due unto their Holy Maker and not unto themselves. Two other writings are included by Hannah More; 'The Pilgrims' is an allegory comparing life with a pilgramage to another land and points out many vices and snares which people fall into by the way. 'Turn the Carpet' is a poem illustrating that the confusion of this world, as seen by many, is in perfect order according to God's will and plan.
