No. 88

Patience, Providence

Let us therefore be exhorted to yield and resign ourselves to God's providence, patiently submit to whatever he is pleased to bring upon us in the world, and be willing that he should dispose of us as he pleases, seeing we know that all his providential dealings are most reasonable and we can be assured that God can do us no wrong. - WJE 14:194
