If you would not have affliction visit you twice, listen at once, and — Affliction

"The Lord gets his best soldiers out of the highlands of affliction."

"With silence only as their benediction, Gods angels come Where in the shadow of a great affliction, The soul sits dumb!"

"Quæ regio in terris nostri non plena laboris."

"Henceforth Ill bear Affliction till it do cry out itself, Enough, enough, and die."

"Christ leads me through no darker rooms Than He went through before."

"God sometimes washes the eyes of His children with tears in order that they may read aright His providence and His commandments."
