I am to be praised in all my saints; I am to be blessed above all things, and to be honoured in every one.
CHAPTER XLII.
That all our hope and trust is to be fixed in God alone.
Christian.LORD, what is my trust in this life? Or what is my greatest comfort of all things under heaven?
Is it thou, my Lord God, whose mercies are without number?
Where hath it been well with me without thee? Or when could it be ill with me, when thou wert present?
I had rather be poor for thee, than rich without thee.
I had rather chuse to be a pilgrim on earth with thee, than to possess heaven without thee.
*Where thou art, there is heaven; and there is death and hell, where thou art not.
