Disappointments.

By John Nevins Andrews

THERE teach us submission to God. They give us an insight into our own hearts. We have in them an admirable opportunity to learn whether we love best the will and providence of God, or whether our own ways are dearest to ourselves.
When we have learned submission we shall say: Let God choose for us. Let his will be done. Let his purposes be accomplished. What he gives is best. What he denies we would be injured by. The hairs of our heads are all numbered. The sparrow does not fall without his notice. We are of more value than many sparrows. Then what he denies, and what he gives, shall be alike accepted with grateful hearts by us.
