My earnest prayer is that our souls may reap a rich blessing through the trial in a deeper communion with the Father and the Son—our hearts more truly disengaged and free to listen alone to Him. There has been much prayer for me, I trust, to the Father's will. I have felt the seriousness of their prayer a good deal, remembering Hezekiah (Isa. 38:99The writing of Hezekiah king of Judah, when he had been sick, and was recovered of his sickness: (Isaiah 38:9)). The Lord' s time for our departure to Himself is the best, and if interfered with it is a calamity. Perfectly restful, I had, and have, neither wish nor will in the matter, only desiring His glory and that Christ may be magnified in this poor body. I but want to give my little testimony to the Lord's grace, and to say how firmly the foundations stand all the rude blasts of adverse winds, for your own comfort when similar circumstances have to be met and passed through.
