Blessed are all they that wait for Him.

ISAIAH 30:19

I WILL trust again His love, His power,

Though I cannot feel His hand to-day; To His help anew I will betake me,

Though His countenance seems turned away!

Though without one smile, one gracious token,

Through the flames and floods my path must go,

When the fires subside, the waves pass over,

My Deliverer I again shall know.

JOACHIM LANGE

IN the night of distress, feel after somewhat which may quiet and stay
thy heart till the next springing of the day. The sun will arise, which
will scatter the clouds. And in the day of His power thou wilt find
strength to walk with Him; yea, in the day of thy weakness His grace
will be sufficient for thee.

ISAAC PENINGTON

My times are in Thy hand, O Lord! And, surely, that is the best. Were I
to choose, they should be in no other hands, neither mine own, nor any
others. When He withholds mercies or comforts for a season, it is but
till the due season. Therefore it is our wisdom and our peace to resign
all things into His hands, to have no will nor desires, but only this,
that we may still wait for Him. Never was any one who waited for Him
miserable with disappointment.
