Fear thou not; for I am with thee; be not dismayed; for I am thy God; I
will strengthen thee, yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee
with the right hand of my righteousness.

ISAIAH 41:10

DO like a child and lean and rest

Upon thy Father's arm;

Pour out thy troubles on His breast,

And thou shalt know no harm; Then shalt thou by His hand be brought,

By ways which now thou knowest not,

Up through a well-fought fight,

To heavenly peace and light.

PAUL GERHARDT

USE thy utmost endeavor to attain such a disposition of spirit that thou
mayest become one with Me, and thy will may become so entirely conformed
to My all-perfect will, that not only shalt thou never desire that which
is evil, but not even that which is good, if it be not according to My
will; so that whatever shall befall thee in this earthly life, from
whatsoever quarter it may come, whether in things temporal or things
spiritual, nothing shall ever disturb thy peace, or trouble thy
quietness of spirit; but thou shalt be established in a firm belief that
I, thine omnipotent God, love thee with a dearer love and take of thee
more watchful care than thou canst for thyself.
