ALL DROPPING FROM THE OUTSTRETCHED

Back to CHRIST'S SYMPATHY TO WEARY PILGRIMS


ALL DROPPING FROM THE OUTSTRETCHED, MUNIFICENT HAND OF A LOVING, GRACIOUS, AND BOUNTIFUL FATHER!

Beloved, remember that all our past and all our coming prosperity, if indeed He shall so appoint it—is in the hand of God. It is His wisdom that suggests our plans, it is His powerthat guides, and it is His goodness that makes them successful. Every flower that blooms in our path—every smile that gladdens it—every mercy that be-dews it, comes to us from our heavenly Father.

Oh! for grace to recognize God in all our mercies! How much sweeter will be our sweets—how much more blessed our blessings—and endeared our endearments—to see them all dropping from the outstretched, munificent hand of a loving, gracious, and bountiful Father! Oh! for a heart lifted up in holy returns of love, gratitude and praise!
