What We Do Know

Though we do not know what to pray for as we ought, we do know that all things work together for good to them that love God. God works of and from Himself in our favor, and makes everything work together for our good. We know not what to look for. Perhaps in the present state of things there is no remedy, no direct setting aside of, or remedy for what makes us groan. But this is certain, God makes all things work together for good to them who love Him. The sorrow may not be remedied, but the sorrow is blessed. The believer is called according to God's purpose, and God orders everything for his good.
