You, to whom it is given to believe in the Lord Jesus, lean continually, through faith and hope, on the faithfulness, immutability, promises, grace, and love, of this dear, this all-sufficient Redeemer. Hold fast the profession of your faith without wavering, and He will never leave you, nor forsake you. For near twenty years, I have found Him, by blessed experience, faithful to His promises. I cannot, I will not, I dare not doubt, (and why should you?) but that, through grace, I shall receive the end of my faith, the salvation of my soul. Let us read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest the gracious, glorious word of God. Let us diligently and fervently watch and pray, and the God of grace and peace will be with us.
