Streams in the Desert, with Mrs. Charles Cowman

Patience takes away worry.

I could not say a word to check my son's faith that his grandmother was as good as her word.

Is it not a suggestive fact that this word "fret" is closely akin to the word "friction," and is an indication of absence of the anointing oil of the grace of God?

Rejoicing in the Lord is a powerful spiritual practice that can bring joy and strength to even the most challenging times, as exemplified by the apostle Paul's unwavering praise despite suffering. By embracing this mindset, Christians can find comfort, encouragement, and ultimately, a deeper connection with God, leading to a more fulfilling life of worship and service.

Difficulty is sent to reveal to us what God can do in answer to the faith that prays and works.
