Trusting God in Deep Affliction

WORD from Mrs. C. C. Hall, whose husband died suddenly in Japan, breathes the spirit of trust and loving resignation. She says: “His death came so suddenly, and the fact that I was not permitted to be with him at the last or speak even a few words of farewell, has made my sorrow greater. The Lord has come very near to me at this time, and has sustained and comforted me as he has promised to do. I am so thankful that I was taught as a little girl how to take my burdens to the Lord, and that we cannot understand and must not question his wisdom. My later experiences have only served to deepen this knowledge and strengthen my love for him, so that now in this deep affliction that he has allowed to come upon me. I feel still to trust him and say, ‘Thy will be done.’”
