May our faith be strengthened to do justice to God's love ! That love claims our full and happy confidence. To render it only a diffident and suspicious trust is to treat it unworthily. May all such spirit of fear and bondage be gone ! May the true Sarah in our hearts cry out, and cry out till it prevail, "Cast out the bondwoman and her son." For when the Lord does His work He does it in a way worthy of Himself. We are not to go forth with fear and suspicion, as though we could hardly trust the Arm that was saving us, but in such a way as will declare plainly that the work is the work of Him "whose love is as great as His power, and knows neither measure nor end."
