Contented

Those who wait upon the Lord with perfect trust are perfectly free.

Here lies contentment - that He who did not spare His Son for us - shall He not also along with Him, graciously give us all things?

Shall our Father with-hold from us anything good? No, never.

Believing this, there is no fretting, no sighing after what He has presently with-held.
Only freedom to joyfully toss all of our cares on Him and live for His glory. He shall work for me as I wait for Him.

This is where I would always be.

"He who hitherto hath fed me
And to many joys hath led me,
Is and ever shall be mine.
He who did so gently school me,
He who still doth guide and rule me,
Will remain my help divine.

"Well He knows what best to grant me;
All the longing hopes that haunt me,
Joy and sorrow, have their day.
I shall doubt His wisdom never, -
As God wills, so be it ever, -
I to Him commit my way."
