"The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil: He shall preserve thy soul." -PS. 121. 7.
UNDER Thy wins, my God, I rest,
Under Thy shadow safely lie;
By Thy own strength in peace possessed,
While dreaded evils pass me by.
A. L. WARING
A HEART rejoicing in God delights in all His will, and is surely provided with the most firm joy in all estates; for nothing can come to pass beside or against His will, then cannot that soul be vexed which delights in Him and hath no will but His, but follows Him in all times, in all estates; not only when He shines bright on them, but when they are clouded. That flower which follows the sun doth so even in dark and cloudy days: when it doth not shine forth, yet it follows the hidden course and motion of it. So the soul that moves after God keeps that course when He hides His face; is content, yea, even glad at His will in all estates or conditions or events.
R. LEIGHTON
LET God do with me what He will, anything He will; whatever it be, it will be either heaven itself or some beginning of it.
WM. MOUNTFORD
