Remembering this, all the Lord’s people should
be content with the lot which Providence seems to mark
out for them—not indolent, but content, when they have done
all that their hands find to do—not restless, peevish,
dissatisfied, complainers against an is providence. It
may be that the Lord is fitting and preparing us
individually for some special service, and that the
permitted experiences alone will prepare us for that
service. We are to remember also that we are incompetent to judge of
our own imperfections, and hence incompetent to judge of
the experiences which would be most helpful to
us. |
