Hindrances Are Helps

HINDRANCES are helps in the life we live and in the paths we tread. It is because of God's love for us that he denies us so many things we ask him for, and that he gives us so many things we pray him to spare us from. This, we may all see, has been the case in our own experience, as we look back on the years that are gone. What have been God's ways with us, in contrast with our petitions to God, ought to assure us of God's wisdom and love, and our lack of knowledge even where we thought we knew our greatest needs. Yet we have a right and a duty to make our desires known to God daily, and to rest all with him, according to his wisdom and love.—Selected.
