'Hannah Moore's Strictures on Female Education,'

And let every Christian remember, that
there is no other way of entering truly into the spirit of that divine prayer, which
petitions that the name of God may be “hallowed," that "his kingdom (of grace)
may come," and that "his will may be done on earth as it is in heaven," than by
each individual contributing according to his measure to accomplish the work for
which he prays; for to pray that these great objects may be promoted, without
contributing to their promotion by our exertions, our money, and our influence, is
a palpable inconsistency.
