HE Is Infinitely Wise, And Infinitely Good, HE Does All Things Well, I Submit."

True love to GOD says

(William Nicholson, "Love to God, and the Divine Approbation" 1862)

"FATHER, if YOU are willing, please
take this cup of suffering away from ME.
Yet I want YOUR will to be done, not MINE!"
Luke 22:42

True love to GOD . . .

  produces sweet submission to HIS will,

  does not rebel at HIS difficult dispensations,

  does not resist the appointments of HIS
       wise and holy providence,

  will not permit us to call into question
       any part of HIS government,

  will not indulge a doubt respecting
       the rectitude of HIS proceedings.

True love to God says, "This trial, this 

affliction, this bereavement, this piercing cross--

has been arranged by my FATHER in Heaven! 

HE is infinitely wise, and infinitely good--

HE does all things well--I submit."

Like Job, it says, 

"Naked I came from my mother's womb, 
and naked I will depart. The LORD gave--
and the LORD has taken away; 
may the name of the LORD be praised." 
Job 1:21
