CONTENT
------------------------------------------------------------------------

God's wisdom so tempers and orders all afflictions,

crosses, and losses--as to make them work kindly

and sweetly for our good. God is that wise and

skillful physician, who can turn . . .

poison into cordials,

diseases into remedies,

crosses into crowns, and

the greatest losses into the greatest gains.

What can hurt us, while an infinite wise God stands by us?
