If thou wilt tread the path He trod—

O then, like Him, submissive bow,

And own the sovereignty of God.

SUFFERING.

For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.—Romans, viii. 18.

Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh.

If any man suffer as a Christian let him not be ashamed.—I. Peter, iv. 1, 16.

But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered awhile, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.—I. Peter, v. 10.
