all, not only entirely, but also abundantly and in most plentiful measure.
2. Is there anything hard to Me? or shall I be like unto one that promiseth and performeth not?
Where is thy faith? stand firmly and with perseverance; take courage and be patient; comfort will come to thee in due time.
Wait, wait, I say, for Me: I will come and help thee.
It is a temptation that vexeth thee, and a vain fear, this that affrighteth thee.
What else doth anxiety about the future bring thee, but sorrow upon sorrow? "Sufficient for the day is the evil thereof."
It is vain and unprofitable, to be disturbed about future things, which perhaps will never come to pass.
3. But it is in the nature of man to be deluded with such imaginations; and it is a sign of a mind as yet weak to be so easily drawn away by the suggestions of the enemy.
For so that he may delude and deceive thee, he careth not whether it be by true things or false; whether he overthrow thee with the love of present, or the fear of future things.
Let not therefore thy heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
Trust in Me, and put thy confidence in My mercy.
When thou thinkest thyself farthest off from Me, oftentimes I am nearest unto thee.
When thou thinkest that almost all is lost, then oftentimes the greatest gain of reward is close at hand.
