Let, I pray Thee, Thy merciful kindness be for my comfort, according to Thy word unto Thy servant. Ps. cxix 76Love divine has seen and counted
Every tear it caused to fall;
and the storm which Love appointed
Was its choicest gift of all.
O if I could always remain in the knowledge of this and live it. To know that God understands my suffering more then I, and does not discount them, but when the storms are harsh and pound against the stern of my life, I can look up to HIM who gives meekness and patience, and can lift a weary head and cause my life to be all that He intended.
Knowing this I have no need to complain of afflictionand distress, but only to bless His holy name.
