The Greater The Trial, The Sweeter The

If We Hold Fast Our Confidence In Him, But Our Faith Is Also, By The Exercise, Strengthened: And So It Comes, That, If We Walk With God In Any Measure Of Uprightness Of Heart, The Trials Of Faith Will Be Greater And Greater.

In Order To Enjoy The Word, We Ought To Continue To Read It, And The Way To Obtain A Spirit Of Prayer, Is, To Continue Praying; For The Less We Read The Word Of God, The Less We Desire To Read It, And The Less We Pray, The Less We Desire To Pray.

It Is True That The Faith, Which I Am Enabled To Exercise, Is Altogether God's Own Gift; It Is True That He Alone Supports It, And That He Alone Can Increase It; It Is True That, Moment By Moment, I Depend Upon Him For It, And That, If I Were Only One Moment Left To Myself, My Faith Would Utterly Fail.

In The Greatest Difficulties, In The Heaviest Trials, In The Deepest Poverty And Necessities, He Has Never Failed Me; But Because I Was Enabled By His Grace To Trust Him He Has Always Appeared For My Help. I Delight In Speaking Well Of His Name.

I Believe God Has Heard My Prayers. He Will Make It Manifest In His Own Good Time That He Has Heard Me. I Have Recorded My Petitions That When God Has Answered Them, His Name Will Be Glorified.
