"The Lord redeemeth the soul of His servants; and none of them that trust in Him shall be desolate." -- 34:22."Though He slay me, yet will I trust in Him." -- 13:15.I praise Thee while my days go on; I love Thee while my days go on:Through dark and dearth, through fire and frost, With emptied arms and treasure lost, I thank Thee while my days go on.E. B. BROWNING.The sickness of the last week was fine medicine; pain disintegrated the spirit, or became spiritual. I rose,-- I felt that I had given to God more perhaps than an angel could,-- had promised Him in youth that to be a blot on this fair world, at His command, would be acceptable. Constantly offer myself to continue the obscurest ’and loneliest thing ever heard of, with one proviso,-- His agency. Yes, love Thee, and all Thou dost, while Thou sheddest frost and darkness on every path of mine.MARY MOODY EMERSON.
