True Believer! O try and learn the Blessed Truth, that in Affliction your First, your Only, your Blessed Calling is to Abide in Christ. Be Much with Him Alone!

In Affliction, Abide in Christ!

When you See It Coming, Meet It in Christ!

When it is come, feel that you are more in Christ than in it, for He is Nearer you than Affliction ever can be!

When it is passing, still Abide in Him.

Every Branch That Beareth Fruit, He Purgeth, that It May Bring Forth More Fruit.
