In times of trouble, call in His presence, for where you...
We must count it our blessedness and highest dignity to be in covenant with God -- esteem this as our greatest honor, that God is our God. If when we are persecuted, imprisoned, distressed, we can say with Jacob, "I have enough, because the Lord has mercy on me, and has taken me into covenant...
