How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart daily. Psalms 13:2. God’s answer. Be careful for nothing; but in every thing, by prayer and supplication with thanksgivings let your requests be made known unto God. Philippians 4:6. Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him, and he shall bring it to pass. Psalms 37:5. Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee: He shall never suffer the righteous to be moved. Psalms 55:22. For he has done wonderful things; his counsels of old are faithfulness and truth. Isaiah 25:1; Isaiah 25:9.
This one word, " Be careful for nothing," is a wall against a thousand troubles. But if we give room to any care and unbelief, it is like a leaven that spreads through all our actions. Therefore we ought never to despair in our lawful calling, but rely in all things on the good Providence and faithfulness of God, firmly believing that he will never fail to carry us through the most difficult and intricate circumstances, though there should be ever so little appearance for it in our own eyes.
He that can dash all worlds to death,
And make them when he please,
He speaks, and that Almighty breath
Fulfils his great decrees.
His very word or grace, is strong
As that which built the skies;
The voice that rolls the stars along
Speaks all the promises.
He said, "Let the wide heaven be spread,"
And heaven was stretched abroad;
"Abraham, I’ll be thy God," he said,
And he was Abraham’s God.
