How difficult to say sometimes. "Though He slays me – yet will I trust Him!" (Job 13:15). How difficult to believe that this rough road is the right road, which leads to the celestial city.
Our Father wisely appoints the circumstances and lot of every one of His children. He has mapped out the path in which they are to travel. He appoints their bounds, which they cannot pass.
We must not murmur, we must not complain – but patiently follow wherever the Lord leads, and quietly bear whatever He lays on us.
James Smith
Pastor/Author (circa 1850)
