We have no word to say against natural fortitude, it is an admirable quality, but more is needed, even the knowledge of the Almighty God and confidence in Him. Those who know Him best will trust Him most and it is written, "Thou wilt keep him in PERFECT PEACE whose mind is stayed on Thee, because he trusted in Thee" (Isa. 26:3). This is true — "I believe God that it shall be even as it was told me." It has been the blessed experience of the servants of God in the storms of the past; it is being surely proved by many of them in the present distress, and it will still be proved until days of strife on earth end in universal peace under the righteous sceptre of Him whose right it is to rule.
