"The Almighty troubles me!" Job 23:16
But if He does—it is to benefit me.
If He troubles me with one hand—He will support and comfort me with the other.
If providence tries us—grace sustains us.
Troubles are as necessary for our souls—as the frosts and snows of winter are for the earth. They . . .
stir us up,
keep us alive,
make us pray, and
put reality into our religion.
If God troubles us—it is in mercy.
He troubles us now—that He may comfort us by and by.
Crosses are not curses!
Beloved, do not think harshly of God because of your troubles—but remember that He is all-sufficient in the midst of them, and that He will bring you safely out of them.
Sinner, if God does not trouble you with conviction of sin, and heart-felt sorrow for sin—He will trouble you with His fierce wrath and indignation forever!
